Default Chevrolet Cab 11 Instrument Lights

The Cab 11 Chevrolet has two instrument lamps built into the instrument cluster, along with a third 'hooded' lamp in the centre of the dash panel (just below the windscreen). From the parts manual and August 1940 instruction book, these lights operate through a 3 way ON-OFF-ON switch (part no, 5801115).

What does the switch name plate look like for this 3 way switch? I'm guessing that to align with the other panel switches (i.e. down is off) then the 'lug' in the plate should be at the top, not the bottom?

Does anyone have a photo of the correct name plate for the 3-way instrument lamp switch?

P.S. I believe the 3-way switch for the instrument lights (along with the third instrument lamp) was deleted on the Cab 12 Chevs.

Thanks,
Owen.
