Currently the 311941531B Headlight Switch is on back order!
The VW Headlight Switch installs into the dash with a 14mm dash nut escutcheon and has a 5mm threaded post for a knob (sold separately, available above). The headlight knob has 3 positions (off / parking-running lights / headlights-running lights) as well as a rheostat control (twist the knob at the second or third position) to dim or brighten the dash lights. The headlight switch fits 1968 through 1970 Beetles, 1968 through 1970 Karmann Ghias and 1968 through 1970 Type 3s.
A Dash Switch Escutcheon Tool makes removing and installing the switch much easier, click here for a link to it.
