Got an 85' C35 and the headlight dimmer switch went out on it. I was wondering if it would be easier to replace the switch or wire in a new switch somewhere else (like the push button ones on the floor in the old trucks).:confused: Thanks
 
Plug and play is always easiest. Just replace the switch, no need to re-invent the wheel.
 
Long story short, i ended up using all the original wiring and connector and mounted a push buttton style switch on the floor to act as a new dimmer switch. Works great and now i have headlights. :D
 
Good job, I like the switch better on the floor anyway.:thumb: I bet it was cheaper that way, too.
