1977 Turn Signal Lever Lettering
Can someone in the warm climates (I just finished shoveling my driveway here in Michigan for the last hour!), take a picture of the lettering on the dimmer/wash-wipe/turn signal lever on a 1977 Corvette steering column. It is a one year only part. Also, it would be a real help if you people could supply a picture of the lettering on the T&T lever as well as the lettering on the standard (non-adjustable) lever.
Thank you in advance,
At least the economy in Michigan is so bad, I no longer have to worry about a snowplow coming by and filling the foot of my driveway.

Ganey - can you show/tell me how you moved your wiper function to the dash? This might be good to know if my turn signal lever breaks (knock on wood). No one sells a repro lever for a '77 T&T column...

The 1977 T&T wash/wipe lever is still available.

At least it is still listed on the Zip website. Only $19.50.
The lettering on the lever is not identical to the original however.

The Corvette 77 wiper wiring has a connector that allows disconnect from the switch wiring in column. I used a 2 speed wiper switch w/ wash & installed at bottom left of dash near the factory connector. Easy.
