I am FINALLY getting close to having my 56 Belair finished and am now turning my thougths to small stuff that I can use at car shows. I know I saw some small spring steel clips that fit over the door switch plungers to keep your dome light from coming on when doors are propped open. I just can't remember where I saw them (old age moment!!), Does anyone know what I am describing and any idea where I can buy a set?

Thanks for any help and I hope to see you all in the spring at lots of event,

Larry

I put them on my car, used abut 1 1/2" of the end of an old hacksaw blade.
The hole size is perfect, just snug them down and pivot over the plunger when you want to turn the dome light off, also useful when you are "parking" with your sweet one, hence the name "parkers " for them.

Thanks, Marv!

That's a cool solution that I can work with.

Have a great week
