I need a driver's door panel. In decent shape. Don't care color or if a 69 or 70. I can modify the 69 to fit the 70 I have

Guidematic is the auto dimmer.

Twilight sentinel turns the lights on/off and keeps them on for up to 90 seconds after the key is off.

STDOG one car has the sentinel, and I will check the other car in the next day or so. Exactly what parts do you need?

All of it. Switch on the dash, dimmer switch, sensors, control boxes and wiring harnesses (the options tie into the normal harnesses at the connectors).

TS has a photo sensor, on the dash I believe.
Guidematic has a sensor in the grill.

Hey I just got back from checking the other car and it appears that it has both options and that they are fairly straight forward as far as taking them out of car. I dont know what they are worth so please make me an offer. I know there is probably an hour or so removeing them and boxing them up so I trust youll be fair.----------Mark

Can you verify they work?

Use something to cover the dash sensor(or test in the dark with a flash light on the sensor). Make sure the lights turn on and off and that the delay functions.

Guidematic is a bit harder, I think light directed at the sensor ill cause it to dim the lights,. Then removing that light will switch them back high.

I can look up the test procedures in the shop manual if that doesn't work.


As to what it's worth, say $100+shipping.(Should fit in a Flat Rate box for the post office)

It's probably worth more but that's the best I can do right now.

I've not seen many for sale, especially not complete and working. Don't know if it's low demand or what.

Also, some of the parts are factory calibrated to each other, so replacement parts might not be real useful for others.

I was just checking out theitems you want and it appears that the auto dimmer has a sensor(electric eye) behind the grille and all appears to be in great shape. All the plug ins and hardware looks new the electric eye even has a sticker with the original part number still on it. The part that turns off the lights doesn't have a sensor, it appears to be a timer that is adjustable behind the light switch. I have no way to test them because the engine has been removed as well as steering colum and battery cables. If you want them I will be happy to remove and send you everything including the wiring harness on the engine bay side. There is no doubt in my mind that everything works because it is all in very good condition, and the car was a low miles car.---Let me know
