Quote:"Yep that's a 38 dash. Now I have a question- there are 4 knobs or the holes for 4 knobs where the radio goes. I have a volume knob and a tuning knob,what are the other (outside) knobs for? Right now I have my turn signal lights in there."



I went and took a look to figure out the "knobs" on the dash. To the left of the radio holes is a light, the bezel is missing but the bulb appears to be red. This is wired into the heater, without electricity I can't figure out the function. To the right of the radio holes is a rheostat for the heater, this also has a bulb in it.


I got the heater out today and solved the "mystery of the knobs". As I mentioned above, the knob to the right of the radio is a lit rheostat for the heater blower. The incomplete knob to the left of the radio is also a lit rheostat switch, that one controls the defroster blower.
