Adam,

Centered directly underneath cab interior light. I don't have exact dimensions but it is centered below. You need to cut a rectangle hole for the switch to set into.

Wish I had a pic...

Heres a pic from my '71

I hope this helps:

SLS has attached this image:





The top of the switch butts up against the raised ridge at the bottom of the courtesy light hole....and all is centered in cab.


My switch is a tad crooked...so I'm not sure whether this one was installed by the factory...or some jackleg at the dealer. Just another thing on my mile-long list of stuff to fix...LOL.

Sorry for the 'dirty' pic...but it is one of the cleanest areas on this ol' truck.

Mine was a little off center, and I know it was original.
