These switches you posted a link to are for a 1965 F250 up to serial # C25000
"Product Note: Headlight Switch -- To Serial No. C25, 000"

Mine does not meet that requirement.

Thanks for trying!

I noticed it says that for every year that is listed on that link. Must confess I don't know the difference between that one and your serial number.

Went and got a title and plates for the trailer the other day after installing safety chains and repairing the wiring on it. Now, onto the light issues with Old Yellar...

I got the replacement bed for Old Yellar sanded and in primer. Next I will repair and fill some dings, dents and gunshot holes (?) before priming again and painting. You gotta love this rust free Arizona metal!

Then I will remove the old bed, repair the cab & fenders, paint and install the replacement bed. The old bed will be installed on the trailer, repainted to match and towed behind Old Yellar.
