need power window switches
Looking for a top quality window switch kit for a set of specialty power windows in my 32 truck. I do NOT want billet. Just simple but top quality.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Last time I went to pick n pull trolling for window switches, I was pretty disappointed to see most switches are pretty integrated into the escutcheon panel.
Check out a replacement kit for a 73 charger..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

If you want a genuine but bulkyish switch. 1977-1983 Mercedes W123 or up to '85 W124 have really good switches. They put them in the center console in those cars, and they pop in the panel separately... If you can't find used switches. MB can still get them from the parts counter or Rockauto with aftermarket switches that are a little diffrent but function the same. Only bad thing is the connectors. A set of bullet connectors needs to be used if you don't have a factory pigtail.You don't know what you've got til it's gone

Hopefully the OP has found his switches by now but since the thread was brought back and to assist anyone that might come here looking for a solution, another possiblity is your local parts store. Many have an aisle section of OE type parts in a product line from Dorman called 'HELP', they are blister packed, hanging on pegs. I'm sure you've seen the window crank handles, door handles, master cylinder lid diaphrams, various springs, clips, etc. Click here.
