Using a '68 headlight switch in a '67.

Anyone ever done it? Seems '67 has a pigtail, and '68 has male spade connectors on the back. Help?

Did the switch I sent you not work Dave?

Notice that 67 and 68 switches are the same - Male spades.
You're looking at a switch with a pigtail connector that connects to the main harness.

No. Apparently '67 has a switch that has a switch like this:

I guess not all '67s have the pigtail directly connected to the switch?

Wiper switch and Headlight switch look alike.

Also remember Chrysler unlike other auto makers would make mid year changes to parts that did not hold up as expected. Check the end that plugs into the main harness, if the ends are the same use the newer switch.

Best example of why you need to own a copy of your car's Parts Book.
P/N's answer 99% of the questions.

We've got a '67 service manual, but not a parts book. And for the record, this isn't on my convertible, but on a '67 4 door I sold to a friend.

FWIW, I have both types pictured in my '67 Newps.
