Curious if there’s a proper order of the dash switches. I have mine (from the left) headlights - fog/driving lights - flasher… kind of in order of usage… high to low
I’ve seen a bunch of pictures with the flasher in the middle and fog on the right. I should have checked last week in the Poconos, but alas, I did not. Thanks! |

I've wondered about this as well after seeing some pictures over the years. My 73 was and 74 is: L to R Headlights, flashers, fog/driving.
I don't have any reason to believe either one of them was changed from factory. |

Tom, just because I like you I walked ALL the way out to the garage (I know, right?) and took this picture. I agree with Flaca: L-R headlights, hazards, fogs, and I don't think they've been altered.

Thanks guys.
Especially Rob, who walked ALL the way out to the garage to take a picture. Just for me. You’re the best! |

Well - I would have happily sauntered out to the garage to take a look but it's 2100 miles away!! (oh, how I wish it were closer....)

My ‘72 was originally “headlights / hazard-flasher / fog lights” (as in Rob’s photo) but I swapped position of the fog light and hazard switches. Back when the car was my daily/nightly driver, I found that when I used the fog lights, the switch (when in the original/right-most spot) was reflected in the windshield at night. After swapping the fog light and hazard switches, the reflection was pretty much gone. Perhaps a previous owner did the same?
