Attachment 1. When I got the car, this switch was missing completely (though the plastic back frame was there.) I thought (somehow) that it was the hazard switch (Part 0-856 in the VB catalogue) (Page 118 in the Spring 2006 catalogue) I now think it is part 8-486 (same page) Am I right? What is this switch for anyway?

TIA

Attachment 2. When I took the dash out, this switch was attached and "floating" in the hole in the dashboard. It also seems to be attached to the only wires I can see being the ones for the switch that goes in the hole. Am I correct that this has nothing to do with LBC's and that the PO just put it there?
 
Finally while I'm working on the dashboard. What voltage are the dashboard lights? I want to test them but don't want to burn them out. Are they 12 volt? or are they stepped down?
 
Isn't that where the heater switch goes?
 
so, I'm correct them that the second switch is "aftermarket?" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif (attachment 2)
