    88 gw interior light dimmer switch?

    Where can I get a rotary interior light dimmer switch for an '88 gw? Mine is bad (broken), and I have tried all of the parts stores locally, they don't even have a listing for them. I found the headlight switch, but not the rotary dimmer switch. Thank you

        It looks suspiciously like a late 80's GM part. My parents' 88 Buick Century had a similar dimmer switch. I've never looked up the part to check, however. But the dimmer switch AND the headlight switch looked the same.

          I am a tech at a gm dealership so I'll check tomorrow. I was thinking I have seen that switch somewhere before, but I can't put my finger on it. I know some of the older cherokee's (small cherokee's, not full size's) actually used a lot of s10 parts in them. One of our parts guys looked a little for me today and found the switch that the small cherokee and s10 both used, but it is not the same as the fsj switch. If I can't locate one locally, I think I'll just wire up the ipc lights to come on with the headlights. I never use the dimmer anyways, but I currently don't have any ipc lights and it's wierd to drive down the hwy with the map light on so I can see the gauges. Thanks for the info.
