Rear console plate light? What cars had these?

[bull]

It's actually pretty cool IMO.

It was a light?  I always thought they were cigarette lighters.   I think it was a C-body thing, maybe 66 or 67.

[bull]

Oh, actually the description says it's both a light and a lighter.

yea..I have yet to see that on any "B" body....although I now think I would like to find one for the Daytona

I think I may have seen one of the fsm (not sure year or make) show it on a B-body installation but I think its a case of a generic drawing used for a variety of applications.   That kind of thing confuses people.

Had one & sold it to a guy for his 66 Chrysler Newport I think, but that was years ago.

yea...as if we don't get confused easily enough as it is

I've got a console I took out of a C body years ago.

It has the arm rest and the lighter...

I wonder if it has the light?

I'll have to look. 

[bull]

I don't see where there's a light. Maybe the guy doesn't know what he's talking about, but a light would be cool back there.

are you serious ? You started the thread and you don't see it ?

[Hemidog]

You can see the bulb in the middle of the lower section of the "grille"

[Ghoste]

Almost like its flashing at you.

[Dino]

Click the link and you can see the socket and wiring.

Geezus, never saw that e-bay option before.  I suppose those C barges were so big they needed all the light and lighters they could get back there huh?  Cuz I'm sure they had them on each door as well. 

[Charger RT]

my 69 charger had one in it when I bought it. was cool. I think it was swapped in because the console front was correct for a 69 but the console door was padded. I have another one to put in my 68. paid 28 shipped on ebay when I bought that one.

Oh yeah, definitely not a B-body thing.  At least not Chargers and no B's from 68 on.

Oh, I thought it was just glare from another light source.

are you serious ? You started the thread and you don't see it ?

I started a thread about a guy saying he had a light/lighter console plate for sale. I didn't start a thread saying I saw a light in a console plate.

[Ghoste]

Thats what I thought too Bull, light from the photo session.

[Nacho-RT74]

well I saw the light from the first time...

[Silver R/T]

cool option imo

[A383Wing]

wow...sold for $160.....I was thinking of trying to find one....if they were cheap enough. The only car that I could put it on would be the Daytona.....I did put 2 lighter socket assembly in mine for cell phone charging and ice-box cooler adapter, but I think the light behind the chrome would be a nice addition

If I could get hold of one, I'd put it in my charger. A very cool addition. 

[Dino]

I want one.  I don't know why, I have no need for it...I just want one.

[Fred]

I want one.  I don't know why, I have no need for it...I just want one.

That's life! Who the heck knows why we want anything.

[Dino]

That's a good point!  Why do we want so much when we already are drowing in 'stuff' ?

[Indygenerallee]

I want one.  I don't know why, I have no need for it...I just want one.

I believe this statement applies with everything in life!! 

[bull]

Another one on Ebay now. Not quite as nice though: http://www.ebay.com/itm/66-70-Mopar-B-Body-Center-Console-Rear-Chrome-Cap-w-Lighter-Very-Clean-Original-/370834140218?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item56576fec3a&vxp=mtr

[Ghoste]

There you go Fred.

[A383Wing]

I would really like to find one of those...that I could afford

[Fred]

There you go Fred.

Guess what Ghoste.........I'm over it. 
Realised it was something I could live without after all.

[Ghoste]

   That's okay too man.

[kab69440]

You'll find them in C-body ragtops as there is no overhead interior light. As I understand it, it was an available option on 66-68 B-body console cars. I snagged one to put in the console section I hacked up to fit my package tray.

[Ghoste]

I disagree on it being an option for B-bodies.

[A383Wing]

I agree with your disagreement, it was not available on B-body cars
