United Pacific C475901 Chrome Plated Headlight Switch for 1947-59 Chevy & GMC Trucks, Universal Headlight Switch, 12V & 6V System - ONE Unit

This switch is high quality and the front metal knob is great. This replaced a switch I had with a plastic front knob. Would highly recommend this switch.

This was a great direct replacement in my 1951 Chevy. Has connection points for: headlights, taillights, parking lights, dash lights, battery power, ground. Others I’ve had in the past are plastic knob and nut and they have broken and looked cheap. This one is great for the money.

Not sure why there are reviews saying the switch doesn't work. Installed into 57 Pontiac and it works fine even the rheostat for the dash lights . Includes a +12v post for accessories so you don't have to splice anything if you want to add accessory etc that needs power . I was able to successfully add my original knob and bezel to the whole thing looks original from the outside . Only complaint is price at $40 that's steep. I would say $25 would be closer to what it's worth , but , a switch for an ancient car showed up on my door in 2 days Soni guess you're paying for that .

I read some reviews and almost did not buy. Said was plastic knob and aluminum locking nut, also it fell apart. I found just the opposite, the knob is nicely chromed metal, the holding nut is heavy duty metal (not aluminum), and the whole assembly was well put together. Easy to install, worked great, fixed my problem.

Good replacement switch..
