1964 Cigarette Lighter
The 1964 Cigarette Lighter is a factory-correct interior dash restoration component designed to replace a pitted, missing, or non-functional dashboard lighter. [1]
When restoring a 1964 GM cockpit, a critical technical detail to keep in mind is the factory variation between Rochester and Casco style setups. General Motors sourced assemblies from both manufacturers on the assembly line. Because the two brands utilize completely distinct configurations (Casco features a sleeve-moving mechanism, whereas Rochester has fixed internal parts), a Rochester knob and heating element will only seat properly inside a Rochester-specific dashboard housing socket (and vice versa).
