The buttons from the factory were pushed through the foam. Then a backing plate was slid over the tangs, then they were bent over. Just as shown in the picture in the first post.

I have some very nice 71/72 Monte Carlo steering wheel scripts with the wood grain for sale. Private message me for more information. Thank you, Dan.

Factory tach was an option for 70-72. The brown tach wire goes to the negative post on the coil. Not the distributor. If no tach was ordered the no tach wiring will be present. The full gauge dash used a different harness from what was used with idiot light dash.

8 inch Rally wheels were not an option. They were Corvette issue only.

I am kind of curious why you changed the original interior color to a non original color on an original SS 454 car? I get the fact that your engine is not the correct one, but wouldn't you want to build the car as close as possible to how it came new? Are you also going with custom wheels?

The guy who made the plastic cups is Andy Filkins/ Dash Doctor 413-822-1046. This will be an HVAC business #, but it is the correct # to get a hold of Andy. I am not sure if he is still making them, but it is worth a try. Let us know if he was able to help you.

It looks like your gauge cluster lens could use a good polishing to really make it pop.

Welcome to the Club. Very nice looking Monte you have there.

Well, what about starting a thread as the original poster had asked?

As stated already, your blower motor is fine. The problem is in the switch. As stated before either the resistor or the switch itself is bad.

If your defog motor runs fine, then the motor is alright. Your switch controls the high and low speed. Your switch may be bad.

The gray wire for the lamps is in a fused location in the fuse block.

That gray wire does not turn into the pink wire, The pink wire is just getting it's power from the same location as the gray wire.

That gray wire would be power for a rear view mirror with a map light. I would have to bet that you have a rear view mirror with a map light. Do you? Any more wiring questions? That Pink looking wire is from another power accessory that your car has. What other power options do you have?

Your welcome.
