I recently modified my center console to accommodate 3 additional gages (oil temp, vacuum, voltmeter). Since my 73 2002 was originally aircondtioned, the center panel didn’t have space to retain the Hazard warning switch. I noticed on pictures of later model 2002’s showing the Hazard switch was located to the left of the steering wheel, opposite the ignition switch, so that is where I decided to relocate mine. Problem: even though the harness was long enough to reach the new location, my 73 panel construction must be deferent than later models. The plastic structure behind has a molded support that has to be ground away and space for the long switch body is restricted by the aluminum brace for the steering wheel, which also needs grinding a 2”x 1/4” relief. The hole to insert the switch was done with a 1 ¼ “ hole saw. Other than having to complete the task upside down, the use of a Dremel tool with a 1 ¼ cutting wheel made the task a fairly simple swap.
P.S. If you have an airconditioned model, there isn’t much space behind the panel before gages with straight electrical connection touch. I used 90 degree connectors
