I bet that was exciting…Snapped the steering at the rag joint.
I was literally pulling in to check out a German food truck. Suddenly, no steering. Almost in a parking space so I finished pulling in. Had delicious German food while I waited for the tow truck.

I put LEDs in my 80 series dome lights and it made it like daylight inside.
What is this "dome light" you speak of?
First of all - you belong here!
Second of all - wow! That is some custom Pig!!!
I have seen a few pics here and there, but I never found the thread.

I thought we just had u-joints? Are you talking about your 40?Snapped the steering at the rag joint.
Hey Matt - are you showing headlight switches w/ the dome lights, as in "turn on your dome light from the headlight switch"?Stepping it up a few notches is, the only way i roll

It's a cobbled together Saginaw POS power steering conversion
Now that I've lengthened the steering column, it's behaving quite well.
No, pretty sure he wants you to buy a different switch for the dash. These are nice dome lights but they are definitely not NOS FJ55 lights as they don't have a switch. I searched for the cover to see what other dome lights used the same cover as the FJ55 and came up with these matches.

It's probably worth the price just to get the cover (assuming you need one) but calling it a NOS FJ55 dome light is a bit disingenuous.

Mor pillaging of my 70
I have a dome light without a switch. So I have been playing around with 3D printing something close. Reinforced with a piece of aluminum angle epoxied in place. Working out how to affix it. 2.5mm shoulder bolt and low profile lock nut. It does require relieving a portion of the cover about an 1/8”.
