where does it go?! '74 Fj40 orginal F and a half... doing some spring cleaning and found this tucked up under the dash... To be perfectly clear I am not talking about my thumb but the black piece of plastic with 2 wires going into it (I know where my thumb goes and what it does!):p

It is a light assembly that illuminates the defroster control on the heater.
 
I dont even have a defrost lever! Where would/ should that go?

When i say tucked..... i mean hanging up there by the wires! I assume it should be mounted someplace?
 
yes there is a slot that the light shines down through. look at the dash above all your knobs

Nope, wrong light..

This one attatched under the dash to light up the heater box controls (on the firewall)
 
On bottom edge of the dash just right of the E brake lever you'll find a hole and a dimple. You'll see how it lines up, it only goes one way.
 
What years were these light assemblies installed?
