I am looking for all the parts needed for a dash mounted ignition switch. I wired my friends 69 Charger with a touch n go push button start and it doesnt work great so we are going to go back to an ignition switch. The car was a project and we never had a switch to start with so I am looking for all the right parts to get. Classic Ind. has a switch that includes a tumbler and key that is $115 and they say it "convert" to a 60-68 cheaper style but they don't explain what that means. Then they also have a $49 switch that says its for a B-body without tilt column. Also, not sure why that matters since the key is in the dash. Were some 69s in the column? We need everything to put the key in the dash; switch, tumbler, key, connector. Is there a bezel for it? I think we are okay there since the TouchNgo round start button fit right into the hole where the ignition switch would go.

Here is the coversion one:

I am also looking for connector housings for the hazard and headlight switches if anyone knows where I can get them. I am an american autowire dealer and I already asked them about the connectors. Apparently they buy the housings under a license deal and cannot sell except with the harness. I am guessing I will come across the same problem with the ignition switch connector. Any help with these last few puzzle peices would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Toby
 
any mopar in-dash keyswitch from 68-69 will work...they are all the same...hit a junk yard, find a late 60's 4 door mopar and rape away...
 
Thanks for the tip. Any thoughts on the connectors for the hazard and headlight switch connector housings? Other cars that are the same because Chargers and Roadrunners are not easy to find as I'm sure you know.
 
they should also be the same....but just to be sure, rape something with a rallye(charger, GTX, Super Bee)dash, standard b body dashes look quite different and may use a different lamp switch/hazzard switch, but knowing chrysler, i doubt it...
 
I would like to know if ANYONE sells replacement OEM connector housings for these cars (60s Mopars). Someone on this forum must know! American Autowire makes a complete B-Body harness with all the connectors. Someone told me they buy them (connectors) from Year One. I can't find connectors only on Year One site. If there are replacement harnesses there must be connectors available. Anyone?
 
I have a 1969 switch with a key if needed Steve
