marcapra Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I'm still wiring my dashboard and was wondering what these holes are for under the dash on the driver's side? There are two oblong holes just to the left of the starter button, and some smaller holes below. Could some of the holes be for the turn signal wiring? Do the oblong holes have anything to do with the steering column? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 (edited) They sure do look like steering column drop bracket holes....oblong for adjustment purposes. Edited April 14 by keiser31 (see edit history) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcapra Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 John, looks like you are right and that was confirmed by a 47 DeSoto owner who texted me with a photo. I thought that the steering column clamp had just two long bolts going all the way through, but there are two 5/16 bolts going up from the bottom, and two 5/16 bolts going down from the top. I am going to have to get larger washers though, because the bolt and washer just fall through the holes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcapra Posted April 16 Author Share Posted April 16 Since I realized that it would be very hard to screw this bracket on after I install the dash, I installed the top half of the clamp while the dash is on my kitchen table. My question is What is that black flange with a threaded hole there for? what would screw into it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
