Mach1 Driver 597 Report post Posted September 18 I have a 69 Mach. You guys with a 70, I read somewhere that the 70 does not have a cigarette lighter on the front of the box- is this true, and if so is it just blank? I'm planning on replacing the lighter with a power window switch for the passenger side, and adding a USB port, and it would be easier if the area where the lighter goes was just blank. BTW, Daniel Carpenter now makes a replica of the box. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mach1 Driver 597 Report post Posted September 18 Thanks Mike. After your post I called Daniel Carpenter and found that they do not have a 70 version. She mentioned that its not their tooling- that's interesting. I'm also going to put two fuse blocks beneath the box, and make a trap door in the bottom for access. I'll have to make the depth of the compartment shallower. I don't want to sacrifice my original, and besides I might make a mistake, so I'll be getting the reproduction to play with. I'm going stealth mode and hiding as many modifications as possible. For some reason the logic of this reminds me of "Double Secret Probation" from Animal House: 1 3 Mike65, RPM, det0326 and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aslanefe 346 Report post Posted September 19 Just FYI. As the ignition switch is on the column on a 70, the wiper switch of 70 is at ignition location of 69 and cigarette lighter is at wiper switch location of 69 for both console and non-console 70s.

Mach1 Driver 597 Report post Posted September 19 Thanks that's good to know. It gave them some standardization for the lighter location, and maybe fewer harness changes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
