Roger bugged out to early on the 4th for me to show him this.. but we finally finished this project. I didn't take him to the secret rooms up front..

We will have stock on the shelf in two weeks.

This is a solid state version of the original module. Simply transfer the two lower bolts from your old module and bolt in to your gauge cluster housing.

The picture below is the final proto-type. The actual color of the board will be in standard green board. (not noticed when installed)

We have also released the rear door ajar switch brackets for the 68-76 cars...

The original is on the left, the reproduction is on the right.... They are sold in pairs only.

It looks nice, but will the NCRS dock me points because it isn't all crusty like the original?

0Willcox Corvette

Well we have a fix for that.. with two positive annodes, some sodium bi-carbonate and sodium hydroxide, a cheap imported battery charger and a 55 gallon drum full of water.. you can deteriorate these as you please in a controlled environment.

Or you could put them in some salt water for a week..

Hi Ernie,
NICE!

PS: Since you have a 'formula' for 'crusty'.... do you happen to have one for 'as forged' ????

Nice new parts. I do know my seat belt switch will not reset right now. It used to work but I have been too lazy to pull the dash apart again to try and see what is wrong with it. With this I would not even have to mess with the trouble shooting process.

<--- forging in process....

Eddie.. As long as the push button is in working order and not bent or broken, this will solve the problem.

I'm putting instructions on the site as soon as the stock arrives.. Why? Because there is a jumper wire from the gauge to pick up power to the module.

She's done..

Excuse my ignorance, but what problem does this fix? I have the push button for the seat belt on my '68 but it works fine. What is tyically breaking on these buttons? Thanks.

The module has a relay and over time it could fail. Since there has never been a fix for this module when it tanks, we made it.

If you are restoring a car "As Delivered" or to NCRS standards then this lamp should work. But the reason we made this was from having two customer looking for it in the same month.

I didn't realize there is a relay associated with the seat belt pushbutton. So the relay goes bad and the light won't turn off when you push the button? Or vice versa, where the light doesn't come on at all when you start the car? Just curious. Thanks.
