Head Light Switch

This is my first post of many to come I started to disassemble my dash on the 65 c10 this weekend and couldn't figures how to remove the knob on the headlight switch. I'm thinking it should just pull off but I gave it a tug and it wouldn't budge and I didn't want to force it. So is there a trick to getting these off?? On a side note I have a inline 292 3 three speed trans with over drive can anyone tell me what it's worth???

Thanks
V.

Re: Head Light Switch

If you look under the dash at the side of the headlight switch, you will see a little button that is spring loaded. Push this in and the knob will slide out from the front. Remove the bezel to the switch, and the switch will drop out from the back.

Re: Head Light Switch

when you put the switch back put in a headlight relay to the take the amperage off the switch. you lights will be brighter & more reliable
