1968 Chrysler 300 Ignition Switch Lamp Location

[mgm1986]

As I continue down the path of rejuvenating my '68 300 I have a couple head scratchers I could use some help with.

Does anyone have a picture or diagram of where the "Starter and Ignition Switch Lamp" mounts in the dash? It was dangling when I bought the car but it does work (if I ground it), so I would like to put it back where it belongs. I don't see anything obvious near the ignition switch where I would expect to see a light. Wondering if maybe the ignition switch itself was replaced?

Thank you for any pictures or diagrams to help get this sorted!

I guess you're looking for where this is mounted:

Which might be, or is, the same as a Newport or NewYorker? I got that pic from here:

My ‘68 Fury III has this bezel that surrounds the ignition and the light mounts above that. You can see the opening at 12 o’clock. Did you remove that big ashtray in the middle and look in that way?

Yep, thank you, just found it looking through the FSM. I can't fit my head far enough behind the dash to see it but once I knew it was there I was able to get it pushed in after removing the ignition switch.
