Dome light dooor switches

[77 Spyder]

Are these things supposed to be adjustable? I noticed one switch has the sleeve pushed in further than the other. Looks like they are supposed to be fit to each door?

Also, are there other cars that use the switches?

Yes, they are adjustable. You can pull the plunger and sleeve out a bit and it will be pushed back in to the proper depth when you close the door.
In the late '70s I had a '77 Astre. If I cranked the drivers door window up too tight the dome light would come on. An adjustment at the door switch solved the problem. Kind of tells you something about the amount of flex in the door.
These switches were quite common in most GM cars of the time.

I wonder if they are still available from GM?

If they are monza specific, I will say no, But if they are the same as some others, maybe I can still buy them new?

I looked up the number in my GM manual and it does show a specific # for H bodies. If you are interested I believe I can get them.

There are pin switches that grd out to turn on the light and Ive used any number of them from ANY GM car of the 70's to 80's. There is always some sort of unique part number assigned to each chassis however the differences are hardly worth the mention as fit/function is no different and the cost of the so called NOS items can't be justified, get one listed for a chevette, then spend $ of items that make a difference!
BTW: Thats a fantasic modified restoration you have in progress Carl!
