got a quick question June 06, 2010, 11:19:45 AM Where can I find a new headlight switch for my cougar? it's the kind with the flip switch not the push pull type and has the dimmer wheel built into it.? I checked advanced auto parts, auto zone and pep boys. no luck they all have the push pull type listed.thanksGB Quote Selected
got a quick question Reply #1 – June 06, 2010, 11:55:04 AM I have never been able to find a new one , I grab them from the salvage yards whenever I find them ( Mark VII has the same switch) Quote Selected

got a quick question Reply #6 – June 06, 2010, 03:55:07 PM Hypostang. I looked up mark VII at auto zone. they have them special order only though . they are $35.00 each and the plug backs are the same only difference is they don't have the heat sink on the side like the cougars did. Quote Selected
