Hi Marty

Look under Library 1955 Chevy assembly manual in the full PDF one, page 133 that might help you.

I think the ignition switch has a light as well. At least it does on a 56.

Yes correct, ignition switch has a spot for a light , but was a option . Dont know if that was the case with 56 & 57

If you look under 1955 Chevy accesories it shows a replacement lighter with a light.

BINGO!!!! Gentlemen, The ignition switch is the missing link :cool: i had looked from below laying on the floor and had not noticed any spot till your posts then went out and felt blindly around on found the hole in the top of the ignition were it belongs. Looks like i will have to remove the switch to get this one in though tore my arm up just feeling around LOL, Thank You
