Maybe. I'm tired of looking and satisfied with Shee-Mar's solution.

If you're looking for an actual repop, "Vettelink" (a member here) has one that he was going to sell to me. I backed out after I contacted Shee-Mar and then saw the Advance Auto link. (which later turned south, but I'm not going to jerk around Vettelink. I said "Sorry, but gotta back out", which is bad enough. I'm not gonna ask to be let back in!). He was asking $150.

I didn't realize they were out of stock. They are so rare I was going to buy a spare.

But for $125 or $150, I could probably find a used tilt column that has parts you can find.

BTW, Year One does list parts for with, w/o cornering lights for about $50. But the pics are bad and cant tell if they match.

Just an update... Got the Shee-Mar switch last week. Installed and driving yesterday. Construction is as good or better than factory. All I had to do was clip the wires for the turn lights and install the switch. It was a drop-in. Works great.

I have both a 68 Bonneville and 68 Vette. The turn switch appears to be the same for both. If you find a Bonnie someone is wrecking you may be able to salvage the switch. I found one on Ebay but it was crap. Supposed to be NOS but was faulty in box.
