No clue what they fit , but thought someone here would recognize them
Look like they mount to a board? , interior dome , dash , or cowl lite?
Not sure they were ever mounted.
A guess to get me going in the right direction would help.
The switch looks like part of a jump spark box or a dash switch.
The top button pulls out to switch , letters under slide lever say off.
Ideas?

The Splitdorf switch was used on wood coil boxes of several cars. Probably around 1904-1912. 1, 2 and 4 cylinder cars used them. The pull out plug prevents theft.

Thanks for the info . I was guessing in that area , didn't realize it went that early. I hope someone needs it , it's been buried away for years.

Sorry I did not see it earlier - but the lights are mid 1920's Studebaker and mounted into & thru the windshield frame. I think they changed in 25, so up to 1924 Special and maybe Big 6 cars
 
Thanks Mark ! I envisioned something like that on the mounting.
Unusual set up . I'll rest better now , and on to another unknown item.
Appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Ain't this fun?
Roy
