Re: 1969 key warning buzzer switch clip
The clip rarely broke, so you just might find it's still a Chevy part/item. Most of the switches have LONG been discontinued. I'd send you one but the extras I have are for tilt/tele column and they're a different geometry (longer switch).
If Chevy doesn't pan out (just a phone call to the parts counter), the alternative is a piece of cake! Go to your local, u-pull-it scrap yard and find ANY GM pass car from the era (69-72 will work) that's got a non TT steering column. Take a wheel puller tool with you and go 'mine' a junker for an extra key minder switch and clip. The inside of the upper column were all alike, it's the length, feature set (turn signal, cruise control, Etc.) and outside 'wrapper' components that changed from car to car.... -

Re: 1969 key warning buzzer switch clip
Not too long ago, these switches for non-tilt/tele were still available from GM. I was able to find a switch for the tilt/tele version by contacting the company that rebuilds steering columns and advertises in The Restorer. Sorry I don't remember their name and I am not at home. Maybe Corvette Steering or something like that?

Re: 1969 key warning buzzer switch clip
Well, I'm living in Germany. The scrap yards over here only have Mercedes, BMW and VWs.... so I guess this won't help. But with a GM part# I could go to my local Opel dealer. Maybe he can get the clip.Comment
