Hold tight to your power window switches, folks! An NOS 4-gang (aka master) switch for '57-59 Mopar just pulled in $360 on EBay!
I recently had mine rebuilt for $50...

Yeah, I saw it.
I rebuilded 1 of the switches a couple months ago. Was a really easy job to do. Hope it will work for ever and always!

The switches work better now, but the metal clips that hold the switches tight to the casing..well, two of them are broken. Somewhere in my parts I have some spare clips..does anyone out there have two they'd loan me until I find mine? Then I could put the switch unit back in the car.

Roger,
To post a pic just click on the button behind: Filename.
Locate the pic on your computer and click on: add attachement.
The pic should be in your post then.
We don't have 2 spare. Sorry. Maybe you can tape them together for a while? I taped the switch against our door panel. The thing that holds the switch (if there is one??) wasn't on our car.
It was on it's place with a piece of metalwire. Couldn't get it back on it good so I used some tape to hold it in place. Works perfect

We don't even have those clips!
I put the block on the switch (the block with the wires) and i taped it against the door panel. Works great!

you must have some great tape there! My wiring is so stiff there, the connecting plates tend to unplug themselves!

I used normal grey tape. Don't know how you call it but it's strong yeah.
Not that strong but it holds our switch. When I just had the switch in and I wanted to press on 1 of the switches the switch wanted to drop into the door so I needed something to hold it. Since my bike was falling apart and I used that same grey tape to hold it together I thought it should help with the switch, and it helped great!
Ooh yeah, Roger
Can you mail me some pics of your interior??
I like to see how the red is with the black dash and I just love to see a nice interior. Just mail me a couple if you can. Thanks!

I know that tape as Duct Tape. ..good for all kinds of things!
One of these fine days I will take some dash pictures for you.
As you know, I am having trouble figuring out how to post to the Website, but I am pretty sure I can post to you directly!

I used a guy who advertises in WPC News...his name is Elijah Scott.
He is very affordable and reliable.
