Hello,
According to my research, Plymouth had a unique turn signal switch while Dodge, DeSoto, Chrysler and Imperial all shared the same switch.

I've learned the only difference in the switches is the Plymouth switch has wires that are about 5 or so inches longer. Does anyone know why this is since the steering columns are interchangeable between all four lines? It seems they should all exit at the bottom of the column in the same location.

Has anyone tried to use a Dodge, DeSoto, Chrysler or Imperial switch in a Plymouth and what was the outcome?

Thanks,

The difference is due because the Plymouth has only one indicator on the instrument panel, the other makes had 2.
