Hmmmm.... Well here's a shot where mine isn't. Never occurred to me but when I was playing with the 63 sf hardtop & set the brake, I noticed it had one. Then I went & looked at the belvedere & it has one so, what happened on the convertible? They didn't come with one? There's no hole & I can't find a wire. I really don't know a lot about 63's so any help would be appreciated

Might have been a option. Back in the day I bought a new 63 Fury and I don't remember it having one. I now have a 63 Savoy and it has the warning light. I have a 63 parts car and it doesn't have the light.

OK, thank you for solving the mystery.
Just seemed weird it didn't. The one on the sf has a blinker bulb in it, really catches your eye!

The Fury wagon my dad had did have the blinking lite. My Sport Fury does not have it but I have never checked it to see if it does have it and maybe a burnt out bulb. Ron

Mine doesn't blink. Has a switch kinda like a brake light switch on the parking brake pedal.

They (AC) make a blinker bulb (or they did) back in the day. My 56 Buick had one in it, too. Who knows if they came that way originally. I was just curious as why the ragtop had none & now I know. Thanks, guys!

It was part of the "Light Package"

Well, I'd say that's probably typical mopar then, because the ragtop has the glovebox and trunk light.

My Savoy certainly didn't come with a "light package"and it has the warning light. Could have been added at the dealer or maybe later but it looks factory.
