And if our vendors cannot help with the complete system, for anyone having a parts car I believe the front courtesy lamp assys with the rounded glass domes and the plunger door switches will be the same -- or at least easily be made to mount -- from any 1948-1954 parts car. The lamp sockets will have two wires and the door switches have 1 single terminal on the rear of the switch. What I do not know is if the holes for the switches were punched in all the door jambs and indicated or maybe covered with a knockout plug or will need to be drilled out.

The courtesy lights were an option on some models and other models only had one lamp assy. The wiring is frequently separate from other wiring and just laying on the bottom dash edge. There still might be difficulty in extracting the old wires if part is wrapped around or taped to the others. At the worst, if someone can only supply bare lamp assys and switches it should only take new wires and replacing the old style hard to find and usually expensive connectors with modern types.

For which year and model? I have quite a few from the 1951 and 1952 at my Oregon shop. Probably door jamb buttons too.
