How do you find a new complete turn signal switch for a 1976 chieftain?

Try www.princessauto.com  Their surplus has non cancelling (like BigMacks) steering shaft units by Grote 40484 i think Canadian: $14.  Comes with full loom, signal flasher and warning lights all on the stalk.  Very durable manufacture.

Does anyone know if this is the same part for a 1976 Brave?  I do have the tilt wheel and it's the 300 chassis.  I'd like to replace the steering wheel as well, plastic fantastic has to go.  I've been told that a lot of the steering column parts are the same as a Chrysler Imperial of the same year but have no way to confirm that.  As I'll need an adapter to put a better wheel on when I replace the switch.  Strangely enough Winnebago Dodge 300 motorhome doesn't come up on the adapter compatible guides.  I've got left and right indicators but the lever is very floppy.  Thanks for any guidance you can provide!

Thanks for the information.  I guess I'll just order the most common adapter for those model year full size vehicles and go from there for the steering wheel.  Those old plastic wheels make my hands go numb from the vibration.
