You have described pretty much everything on My packard pertaining to the system. I have 2 headlight dimmer switches on the floor. I also have a large black box on the firewall stamped "Autronic" and a relay mounted on the firewall next to it. I have unmounted them off the firewall for cleaning and the paint on the firewall underneath was shiny & new looking. I think it has been on the car since new. Is there a possibility that the Packard dealer installed it from an over the counter kit from Oldsmobile/Chevy? I think someone on the list here claimed to have heard customers requesting the system and Packard dealers installing them to satisfy demand.
