This is a picture of a 12K original mile Fire Truck interior showing the correct locations for the knob/cable and the switch if you look here under the dash you will see the pre-drilled holes. I have seen that fan switch in some trucks but believe it to be after market. The heater is the correct one for your truck havng the small door. Here is a picture of the switch, they come in different colors some light others darker. Send me a PM on the clip. Last picture is of my early style recirculating with plate instead of decal correct for 47-50 trucks. Plates/decals are changeable for GMC or Chevrolet.
