    I had this part blow up on my '62. I found that it was the same as on a
bunch of other '62 / '63 MOPARS; I got one out of a '63 New Yorker in a
junkyard. The little vacuum fittings were *insanely fragile* !!! and I bet
they're even worse fifteen years later. I suggest (if you find one) that you
cut the hoses to remove it, and only attempt to remove them from the module
when you get home. I also (strongly) suggest that you be very careful of the
electroluminescent lighting panel which is right next to that module in the
dash 'pod'. If it's energized and you touch the edge, you'll get a heck of a
shock!
   Good luck.
