This bracket is mounted to the lower dash flange. There is a hole to the
right of the steering column. A sheet metal screw though the hole into a
clip on the bracket holes it in place. It is that way on my both my '70 &
'76.

Couldn't find this switch --- guess I have a different Moss catalogue.
The switch for the interior light on my '70 is part of the lamp assembly.
See part EH1 on page 297 of TRF catalogue, Volume 2. The switch for the
courtesy lights in my '76 (and I think all models after CF1) is under the
radio in the center dash support bracket assembly.
The courtesy lamp for the later models is retained by a clip to the lower
dash flange under the glove box. That's number EH14 on page 297 of the TRF
catalogue mentioned above.
Sounds like someone put a later wiring harness in your car.
