    That one is for an Impala,,,,,,but the 64-66 Chevy Malibu, Chevy ll , El Camino, Pick ups, Corvette and Corvair, used the same turn signal switch on the Chevy Vans which have the same connectors on it.

    That wiring can be harder than it needs to be if you don't have a plan for it. I ran 2 wires down by the gas pedal and back to the temp and oil senders. I ran 6 wires to ground under the dash for the 3 gauges and 3 back lights. I ran the 3 hot wires with an inline fuse to the Ignition Unfused terminal on the fuse box,,,,,,I ran the backlight wire to the terminal on the Panel light fuse. That whole fuse comes from the dimmer section on the headlight fuse. I ran a wire up through the channel above the drivers window all the way back and down past the left rear tail light through the fuel sender grommet to the rear lights. And I found why there was a piece of copper tubing instead of a tail light fuse,,,,,,the right rear tail light wire that goes inside the channel over the rear doors was burnt from being pinched by a metal clip that holds it into place,,,,,,now that is something that we need to check on,,,,,,,
