Hi all,

Does anyone know where I can purchase a new interior courtesy lamp timer for a 77 vette? The one my uses is a round style, looks kinda like a flasher and is located on the drivers side fuse panel area? If no one knows, is there a way to bypass it with a relay or something to still have courtesy lights when you open the door or turn the light switch to the interior lamp on position?

Thanks for any help....

I had a simular problem with my 77, my interior lights would not turn off. I replaced the switch inside the door jam and had the switches in the doors cleaned, now it work just fine. I purchased the parts needed at NAPA. Good luck, Gene

Vette(s): 1977 - L48 - 350 engine performance modifications (cam, lifters, carburator jets, recurved distributor, automatic transmission quick shift, 3:55 rear end, high performance catalytic), complete interior restoration, exterior restoration is in-process.
J & D Corvette in Bellflower California have a great selection of working used parts that the sell at a fair price.  I am sure they have the lamp timer and they ship world wide.  Phone 1.800.838.8353
