Pictured below are 3 headlight switches (from left to right): Original 1963 Corvette switch stamped "095" (GM # 1995095 in Gr. 2.485), Replacement 1963 switch purchased from Stoudt Corvette about 1988+/-, and an original 1963 Chevrolet Passenger switch stamped "096" (GM # 1995096 in Gr. 2.485 also listed for 1958-1962 Corvette in my 1963 Chevrolet Parts Catalog).
The white ceramic insulator on the "095" and 1988+/- replacement switch are the same but the "095" switch has a "spoked wheel" unlike that on the replacement switch and the "096" switch. I also have several "131" headlight switches originally used on 1964-1967 Corvettes & passenger cars that have the "spoked wheel" but a totally different white ceramic insulator.
Question: Can a "096" switch be used on a 1963 Corvette? I sold my Early 1963 white Split Window Coupe (#1450) years ago.
GM # 1995095 was discontinued sometime between Jan. 1976 and Dec. 1981 without a replacement part number. My 1981 Corvette Parts Catalog (Nov. 1981) lists GM # 1995096 for 1958-1962 Corvettes, nothing for the 1963 Corvette.
