So my trip to get the rest of my parts yesterday included a score of another AC head. The faceplate was wiped out but it had good knobs and after a vinegar and Red Devil lye dip the AC switch works perfectly.... Now to see how the NOS order goes. I had one good experience with Brad's NOS Parts in NC in the past. This time not so much.... 9 days and not a single word on the status of the order and no reply to emails. Phone immediately goes to busy all day long.... I would actually like to cancel it now... we will see.....
While I had the chemical out I dipped, polished and lubed the Map Light switch. It works perfectly now.
All that is left to do is figure out where I want to do the splicing of the '73 AC harness into the main harness and fix the original '72 Map Light Harness (someone had cut the connector to the switch off but I can steal it from the '73 Map Light Harness), no the '72 and '73 Map Light harnesses are different so I can't just use the '73. Also I need to graft in the AC control illumination light into to the '72 harness somewhere... Need to figure it out so it dims with the rest of the dash light.
Not much else is going to get done this week so till Saturday...

Anyone want to buy a $25000 Duster, better than new!
