Dash parts

[Matt69olds]

One step forward, 2steps back!!!! I got the cruise harness swapped in, got the delay wipers wired up and installed, new stereo, really thought I was on the home stretch. I noticed the headlight switch is in a different location in a truck with the wiper switch on the steering column. No big deal, I thought I would fab up a plate to fill the hole in the dash where the old wiper switch was, drill a new hole for the headlight switch, and move on to the next hurdle. Ha!!! Anybody know there to find the correct tool to remove the nut that holds the headlight switch in place??

Second question, and the subject of the wanted ad, I need the nut that holds the headlight switch in place. Long story made short, I broke mine, I need to redesign my block off plate.

Not sure, but does it use a spanner nut ( 2 slots on the perimeter ) ?

If so, the tool answer is a spanner wrench. or, a hammer & a flat head screwdriver ….

A pair of long-nose (needle-nose) pliers works too.

Don't have an extra nut laying around tho.

Yes, it WAS the one I was looking for. I found a replacement. Surprisingly, I didn’t find my original. Usually I find whatever it is I’m looking for almost immediately after getting a replacement. Thanks!!
