I am looking for the **** that you turn when you put on the headlamp.
My dealer tells me to get the switch and everything complete very expensive.
I have a -90 ,are these ***** available seperately
would love a partnumber for it.

I've never seen them sold seperately. I'd try a Corvette salvage yard or someone in the C4 Parts for Sale/Wanted section on this Forum.

You can buy the **** and shaft together for around $20-$25. Can't remember which of the popular vendors carry it, but it is out there. If they ship you 2 by accident, send one my way 
Try Ecklers, MAD, Zip etc.

Are we talking about the **** on the headlights themselves that you use to manually raise/lower the lights, or the switch on the dash that you turn the lights on with???

Talking about the dash.
Looks like GM has only the complete switch and ****.
Think that a used one will be the best way for me.
Just have to find one in Sweden is not the easiest way but i´m going to make few phonecalls
Small things can be annoying

does your switch still work.. like does it just have the metal shaft sticking out..and all you need is just the plastic round **** for the end?
thats just a spring clip with a plastic end on it..you should be able to find something like that for other applications too, not just cars... might make your search easier...
