It means “if I recall correctly”. Also I posted in the mods forum to let the guys know that there is a problem with the for sale forum. Unfortunately I know just enough about that forum to be dangerous. …Mark

Put in the heated seat pads under the factory material. 1-1/2 hours well spent I’d say. It’ll be -40 here in no time.

AC Temprature Cycling switch

Anyone have a #56005783 for the AC system?
3 wire for 92 W250.
Or do the bypass option or relay bypass?

Figured out my mileage on my last two tanks. 28.6 mpg combined. That’s insane. And I drive 110-115 kmh on the highway.

Nope. Divided my miles travelled by gallons of diesel. I drove around 70mph and my Speedo is within 1 mph on gps.

If it is the same as the ‘90, it’s unobtanium. Check the sticky, I think there might be a solution there…Mark
The quote didn’t post, this is in response to the ac switch question from frustrated…

Hi Oliver, you don’t happen to have a wheel trim ring for my ‘68 Oldsmobile Toronado? It’s the most “unobtainainable” part on earth. I figure if there’s one out there, you have it…Mark
P.S. Also I was thinking new, because I had found two new ones in Texas, so to be clear new ones are “unobtanium”, I rest my case 🇺🇸🤔

Sorry.
I can not help on any non Mopar parts and pieces.
Other than my Plymouth '69 Barracuda and a '78 Plymouth Trailduster, I am all Dodge all the time in my shop.

Ben, loose ones (not already on a car) don’t exist. A parts car showed up a few weeks ago on fleabay with those. I found it a few hours after it posted, contacted the guy and he told me that they had sold fifteen minutes after posting. I won ten dollars at a party recently because a “car” guy said he could find one in ten minutes. An hour or so later, I was ten dollars richer. FYI these do not have a hole for the air valve. They are easy to spot…Mark That one will not fit on a 1968, I hope they don’t call themselves experts🙄
