72 Cutlass Convertible Top Switch (or rear window switch from Vista)

Looking for the interior up/down switch for the convertible top on a '72 Cutlass 442. I believe a rear window switch for a Vista Cruiser wagon will also work. 1970-72 will likely interchange. Call Mike at 269 209 3348

That link did not work for me, but it is there. Just go to http://www.topsdown.com
and search for "switch". Easy to find.
I bought some stuff from them a few years back and were good folks to deal with - I recommend them.

Hey Mick, I believe I have one, do you also need the bezel? And I have to be really close with a 209 cell exchange...I'm in Battle Creek.

I am also in Battle Creek and would love to have a look at the switch. When you bezel, which piece do you mean? I can stop by or meet you wherever you would like. I'm at work until 7:00 tonight, but you can reach me on 269 209 3348.

Mike, the bezel is the metal trim part on the dash. If yours looks okay cosmetically, you will not need to replace it.

Thanks Rob. I thought that might be it but the confirmation helps. The bezel on the dash looks good.
