The only other way to do it on my Polara anyway, would be to separate the rear lamps and have one brake and the other a turn signal on each side. Bypass the brake light portion of the TS switch. Naw, I'll wait for Dan to get some switches in.

I think I'll talk to Jeff my buddy that sells used Mopar parts. May be he will have a good used switch (and some molding clips I need.
C body switch will work. See other in this thread.

OK I got REAL lucky and a guy in Canada accepted my offer for a OEM Mopar switch for 62-63 so I just had to change the terminals to the 64 style. Night and day difference in feel compared to the Shee-Mar switch and everything works perfectly. I will still want to order one of Dan's switches for a spare. I believe the Shee-Mar is a decent alternative if you want to make sure the brake lights work. I was able to finesse my Shee-Mar and make the signals work and avoid the strange flashy rear light thing but I didn't really like that.

Well geez I am sorry. When I opened my PM folder I got a notification that it was full and I accidentally deleted everything to clear it out. I am trying to get this car ready for what will certainly be the last car show my brother will be able to attend and I am in a real rush. Sorry for the trouble.

I just started looking for a fresh switch for my 63 Fury, and interested in the NOS if still available?
PM sent.
I did post this in another thread but it bears repeating. Here is another option. I was able to buy a whole column from a friend with a solid feeling oem switch in it. It was a turd to get the terminals released (another story) but the switch came out fairly easy and cleaned up nice. I will still get one from @Slantsixdan if he has some available.

What is Shee-Mar, it the who is repopping them?
Is shee- mar the only ones making these?
Just an off shore company that repops the switches. They have been found to be no good by many members.

No. Other companies make them. Unless the supplier tells you, the manufacturer isn't known. Same part numbers may be a clue.
If you have the original turn signal switch this may help.. 66 Charger, Turn signal repair

I see the early B body switches are $350.
They claim otherwise.....Just an off shore company that repops the switches. They have been found to be no good by many members.

Their headquarters are in Longmont Colorado. But, doesn't make much difference if they aren't any good. See post #13." " I talked to Seth in Tech help at Shee-Mar. He explained that it's an old design that they continue to make in the US to help out the old car hobby. The spacing of the contacts and the operation of the switch can lead to the issue I described above and they know about it. I appreciated the honesty as it will save me the trouble of trying another of the same. I can work around the little glitch while I look for a "better" switch. " "
I'm pleased you have first-hand contact with them.... there are so many shady sellers making all sorts of wild claims of authenticity.

I don't but the quote was from another member that did contact them. The power of sharing information.I'm pleased you have first-hand contact with them.... there are so many shady sellers making all sorts of wild claims of authenticity.
