    '71 Vette: Headlamp Wire Clip #3833476

    Looking for clarification on the use of a wire clip, GM#3833476, shown in the 1971 AIM (UPC 12, Sheet A4, Item 2) . . . .
    Is this particular clip used to retain the low beam headlamp wires or the switch which is attached to the headlamp actuator linkage?
    The '71 that I'm working on (built in January of 1971) doesn't have the two clips and I'm at a loss trying to figure out where to place the clip and what wires it actually holds.

    And, looking at the '72 AIM (UPC 12, Sheet A5) it looks like it was removed on March 2, 1972.
    Which tells me, that the '71 I'm working on, should have had the clip . . . .

    I think... a clip for the headlight switch on the linkage. I have never seen a clip there that I can remember anyways....
    I just took a 69 apart, and it did not have a clip there. Neither does my 70.
    I don't think I would put one on.

      Gary,
      Thanks for your insight and your reference points.
      It looked a little strange to me, especially with the size of the clip and the length of the headlight switch wires.
