    Got in the truck this morning, leg of my pants caught the turn signal switch and broke it off. Can someone point me to where I can get another? Thanks for the help.

    ive got two 78 double headlight models but i dont have any spare parts for those models they are hens teeth around here ive been collecting 79-83 cause they are still cheap and somewhat plentiful still those models might be able to be retrofitted into yout older model i would look for a early 79 model to be the most compatable with yours but if you can find one that fits the collum, compair schemtics between years they all do the same funtion

    The description is not accurate because this turn switch lever in not for a 1979. This switch is for the earlier trucks. At $40.00 and a Toyota OEM/NOS part, I'd say it's a good deal.

    I have a couple if you still need one. Ones still attached to a steering column. I keep spares of hard to find dash related stuff.
