This the B pillar switch found on Business Sedans it was also used on FE FC Business Sedans

Being on the drivers side B pillar it can be awkward to reach around to use and is somewhat superfluous as you can just reach up and use the dome light switch

First time I've seen one advertised.

I have a '46 Buick sedan which has the same switch on the pillar behind the driver with no switch on the actual light on the roof. Probably the same switch used on all GM cars of the late 40's I reckon. Al

I don't believe this is an FX FJ or an FE FC switch. I think it is an old GM pillar switch as Al suggests.
There are photos on the forum that I will try and find.

The switch you have a photo of Ken is also used in GM cars of the 40's. I have another '46 Buick wreck with this switch on it so there are a couple of types that were used. If anyone wants one of those switches (either type) look for a 1946-47-48 Buick, Chev or Pontiac wreck.
