these days drivers are spoiled by automatic clickers. but back in the day you had to manually blink your blinkers, so you did it with these floor clickers. you could always tell who had rhythm, and who didn’t.
but really
they were used to turn your headlights on/off/high beams.
My first truck was an 86 Chevy, and it had one of those in it, and the fucker broke, and that was the most embarrassing $5 I ever had to spend at an auto parts store.
Cause I didn’t know what to call it cause I was a stupid teenager and I was just like, I need that little thing you play with with your foot to turn the lights on.
shitty thing about them was, they only fuckin broke at night.
I had an 86 f100 with one that went out in BFE cornville 20 miles from home in the middle of the night. I had to pull over and with a fucking zippo as my only source of light, manually hook up a headlight to the battery.
but damn they were fun to click, like a 1970s version of a fidget clicker.
I miss those clickers so fucking much.
they should bring them back.
What is it? (Sorry if dumb question - I’m not a car user)

Thanks! I prefer the “not really” version ;)
