Ok guys, help me out!
I'm looking to replace my '69 with a '71 K10 on cl. I've talked to the owner, he's sent me some pics, I intend to go check out the truck soon. But I've got a question about his pic of the dash (below). There are two switches below the lights and wiper dials, does anybody have any clue as to what they are?
TIA

Re: Ok guys, help me out!
Probably best to trace the wires and see where they go.

Re: Ok guys, help me out!
Thanks for the suggestions. Now that you mention it, one is most likely for fog lights, the truck does have them. I'll have to see where the other leads.

Re: Ok guys, help me out!
One of those switches activates the inflatable passenger so you can use the carpool lane.

Re: Ok guys, help me out!
the one under the wiper switch is for the wipers because the wiper switch doesn't work and the one under the light switch is for the lights because the light switch doesn't work!

Re: Ok guys, help me out!
I see the turn signal lever is missing. I think those are the new turn signal switches. You just flick them on and off repeatedly until you make your turn. Never have to worry about one sticking on...well,not with most people anyway.

Re: Ok guys, help me out!
If you look close, you can actually see the turn signal...but who knows
I think they're probably for missile stacks located in the bed- one to arm, one to fire. It's a moot point I guess, because the seller backed out on me last night.

Sucks; maybe you can go over there and turn the smoke screen on him.

Re: Ok guys, help me out!
I have a friend that had a 66 Stang in high school, he had a switch to turn his brake lights off. We ditched the cops that way if we were out doing something we shouldn't be...
