'59 Courtesy Light Fiber

[Rob M.]

Hi,

If I understood correctly than I should have a fiber piece under the dash pad holding the courtesy light. In my car this piece seems to be missing because I feel a large oval hole in the courtesy light area under the dash pad. Is anyone selling this part (original or repro) ?

greetings,
Rob.

Rob. When I put my `62 back together a few years ago I did not have any fiber washer or holder. (Could have been lost over the years.) The retaining screws when into the dash itself, if I remember correctly.

Re: '59 Courtesy Light Fiber

Hi all,

I also checked the wiring harness of the courtesy lights just now and it seems that only a two wires are running from the left door ending in a white and black/white wire at the middle console. They have male connectors attached to it where I would expect female connectors to fit into the courtesy light socket. How were the wires of the right door switch and the courtesy light connected to these male wire connectors ?

If needed can I buy the missing wire harness somewhere ?

greetings,
Rob.
