Factory cargo light switch?

Post by NC72crew »

Any one have an extra lighted cargo switch that turns red when you pull it out to turn on the cargo light. I had one in my truck but after taking me 10 years of moving and 2 different body shops i no longer have it. :?

I see a couple on Ebay but a little pricey. Part #: C8TZ-17513-C

You still need a switch? I believe I have a couple extra with harness and outer lamp if needed.

If you're not concerned with originality, connect your cargo light to the dome light wire. So when you open your door or turn on your dome, the cargo light comes on just like the newer trucks. I never understood why Ford didn't do this and eliminate the switch.

Sorry for the long pause in replying. I do still need it. I am looking for the one with the light in the center.

If you can't find one here, then try Tony's Ford Trucks (they specialize in bumpside and dentside trucks):
