Does anyone know where I can find this part circled in yellow in the picture?  Can't find it anywhere and don't even know what to call it other than "plate".

Also, does anyone know what bolts/screws hold the glove box lock into the dash?



On another note, I ordered my steering column and associated install parts, lokar shifter, radiator, and 21 circuit wiring harness. My build is gaining momentum!

Thanks!  Dave

I was under the impression that that piece was spot welded to the main dash.  That holds the light - right?

Definitely not spot welded. It has it's own part number but cant locate the part by the part number.  I do have the bigger one that houses the ignition switch, lights, etc.... This one secures the lighter and choke.  I don't need either but I don't want the holes in my dash.
