'70-72 Console glovebox light switch

Looking for one, possibly two of these switches. This is the switch that activates the light inside the console glovebox when you open the console door. Similar look to a doorjamb switch of dash glovebox light switch.

Thanks

Thanks for posting the link, I thought it was inline tube. If anything mine may be to high but If i can't get $20 each i will keep them for future console builds. They are almost always missing.

Does anyone know what switch they use for the glove box light? Is it the same switch or can you use a door switch?

Jensen - I'll take one if you'll split them up OR will take both. I figured Pete (BOldsmobile) can use one as well if you're willing to make two separate shipments.

Dfire25 - here's a pic of a glovebox light switch. It's not the same as the console switch or a door switch...it only has one wire running to it. Probably available from any number of the guys on here parting out cars, etc.

Thank you.

H&H started selling them for $30+. I think Jensens for $20.00 isn't bad.It is one of the first pieces missing from the console.
The RH doorjamb switches are stiffer,and slightly taller.Not good for the console.
