Hey man, where did you get that switch from, or shall I say what vehicle did it come off? Also was it a direct plug-in, or some modification to the harness is required?

Throw some LEDs in there man, those suckers can get real bright - I'm gonna install some red ones in my truck, but I ain't got extra $30-35 laying around.

Mr79C10 · 08-13-2007, 11:47 PM

I scored the switch from Ebay for 30 duckies. It was the switch and the delay thingie and its plug and play.
As for leds. got em. Just need more of them.

So I assume you don't happen to remember what truck that switch was supposed to be for according to the auction? Reason for asking is I have a fairly good junkyard not too far and I can score a switch for much cheaper, and I have to go there soon anyways cause I need a radiator shroud and my buddy needs a spare wheel...

As for LEDs - I like that you chose blue, they go well with the color of yer truck - which would be why I'd go for red for mine, and blued like you for my car whenever I feel like tearing down its dashboard (royal PITA).

Cleaned up some of the junk in the TPI plenum for the Jimmy, installed the fuel pump block off on the 350, pulled the Q-jet off. getting ready to pull the intake and put the TPI setup on the engine.

Question: should I paint it or leave it raw aluminum?

On my 87 I had the wonderful task of replacing my fuel selctor valve outside the garage parked in the grass where it was parked before going out.
