1925 Buick dome lamp switch FOUND

[J.H.Boland]

Looking for a dome lamp switch for 1925 Buick Standard coupe. Would appreciate photo of original one.I may have to get a universal one from Bob's Automobilia but would like to see what is correct for 1925 closed cars.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

No pictures in the 1925 Std.or Master parts book.

Leif in Sweden.

As Leif has noted not in the master parts book. Somewhere there has to be someone with a period Fisher body book as they did the closed body cars. Possibly same as Chevrolet.

There are preserved and restored examples of Fisher bodied 1925 Buick closed cars around. I would appreciate if the owner of one of these would snap a photo of their switch and post it. 

Thanks.

Jim:

I do not know if you have looked through the videos on this link. He has what appears to be the door handles and dome light switches.

 You may have to watch the 2 videos twice but I believe what I saw for you was in the 2nd one.

Jim:

If you are not going to Hershey I can check with Handleman when I am there. If it is what you need I can get it to you. We will be at CH44 -45. I have bought handles, bumpers a gas tank and a 1924 Buick radiator from him. So I think he may recognize me.

Thanks to Roy at roysboystoys I now have a functional dome lamp. There was a switch among photos of a number of items he had for sale that looks and works well. It may not be the exact bezel, but it looks similar to the rad shell design.
