Just bought a 73 and can't figure out where the headlight knob, windshield wiper knob, anything is. Anyone have a bug who could tell me. And there are also a bunch of switches underneath. Don't know what those are for either.

Headlight switch is on the dash has a picture of a head light on it. Wiper switch is on the steering wheel. One side turn signal other side wiper. The switches under the dash are not OE so could be anything.

The headlight knob is on top part of the middle of the dash. Under the radio the two knobs with arrows going in a circle are the fresh air knobs-(turn left to open vents, right to close)- one for passenger and one for driver. On top in like the little indented area where theres a swtich with a fan on it-that controls how much air comes in when the fresh air vents are open. The wipers are on the right side of the steering wheel, left side is turn signals. On the very bottom of the dash by the ash try are the hazards on the right, and if equipped-an auxilary heater on the left. The switch UNDER the steering wheel is for the rear defroster. Hope this helps!
