66/67 Rear defog switch/bezel

Looking for Cutlass 66 and 67 rear defogger switch and bezel. I have a bezel in fair shape, and a switch in marginal shape. This is not the power antenna/convertible switch which is spring loaded to return to the middle, but one that will stay either up or down for low or high speed. Do not think this switch is repopped (the other ones are) so worst case, I could swap a switch toggle from a repopped one onto my internals.

Thanks.

I don't have the defogger in my 66, so I don't quite know where the switch mounts. If it is not a dash mount, but rather under the dash, (and doesn't have to be OEM), you could use a SPDT 3 position toggle switch, (center position off) which you can probably find at the Auto Parts store, or Radio Shack.
Here are a couple of listings for ones that would work on eBay:

Would it be the same as a full size of the same year? If so I have one available.

Similar in form and format to the above power antenna accessory, the three Cutlass accessories were power antenna (on any Cutlass), defog (on solid tops) and convertible top switch (on rag tops). Thus, one could have the antenna, and either the defog or the top, but never all 3, and rarely 2, usually just one.

The model badge hung on the pin holes for the switch bezels, and would be moved to the right with extra holes punched for it to expose the slots for the switches, which were always there already as part of the dashboard mold, and were either totally covered up by the badge with no accessories, or partially, with one.

I do have one already, I should have taken a picture. The switch looks the same as the one in the picture, and the bezel has defogger language on it, but is the same shape and colors. I don't know if this is what the big car ones look like.

Thanks for all interest and help.

You might check with Ron Roth (rroth01). He is the 66-67 Dash Man!

Also the switch for the optional station wagon power tailgate window was positioned there.

The bezel for rear de-fog used different font between 66 and 67.

Pretty sure I've got one. If you don't find one by the weekend send me a reminder and I'll look for it.
