I think I got minr from Classic Industries as well. Wasn't cheap, but it works.
That said, dash lights are still rather dim, even when at full power.

Coke cola was used to clean off the battery terminals when they got corroded. Now they make stuff in a can that is yellow then turns red when contacting the acid. We used baking soda to neutralize acid back in the day. We have come a long way's since the 60s now it is in a can in steed of using the old remedy's of the past. :)

Your going to be sitting down when you see the price but Classic sell them. Saw some on E bay myself. Mopar's part's and other's have them. Think I will clean mine before buying one. Maybe your looking for the knob or dial to be better looking. Their was also some where I saw that they repair yours. Have not surfed on this in a while. I don't remember if mine worked well or not. Knew the head light's worked. Won't be long before I get into working on the dash and all. So will be looking at all those part's my self. Russ.

I saw Ron ask where did you get the dimmer switch...and like every thread on here I thought that it had taken a 90 right... :luvplace:
This is what I was referring to when asking about the "Dimmer Switch" 68-70 for Mopar B-Body Instrument Panel Dash Board Light "Dimmer Switch" Looked all over for this when doing my dash over, the current switch does nothing when rolled. Some broken internal pieces once I pulled it out. So I just put it back in. At the time I could not find one. Yes, Russ, I'm sitting down, probably just leave it as is for now.

I’ve never heard of using ketchup, but have used Coca Cola to clean battery terminals in a pinch. But with the acidity in ketchup, it makes sense.
