That is not correct.

It does NOT hold the TURN signal flasher to the dash.

It holds the EMERGENCY flasher to the dash.

The turn signal flasher plugs into the instrument cluster.

There are two flashers behind the dash, not one.

Get your parts catalog out and look here: Illustration: Section 145.2 / Page 12.

But gunz on my 67 the turn signal flasher doesnt plug into the cluster.

It also uses one of these style clips.

Those clips are also used for holding compact fluorescent lights in aquariums.
