Cargo Lamp Switch Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

A question for those with the optional cargo lamp. Where on the dash is the switch located? Is it to the right of the fuel tank selector switch on the other side of the ash tray?

The switch was originally mounted on the left of the driver head. Close to where the lap/shoulder seatbelt part is bolted to the side. I can run out there and take a pic of it's actual location if need to.

That is the original mounting place. But where ever you have room on your dash to mount it is fine. Where ever is comfortable for you.

Don't make a special trip unless you are out there on a expedition, go ahead and snap a picture where that switch goes.
Thanks!
