Are talking about the dash lights dimmer? It's built into the headlight switch on the left side of the steering column.
If your lalking about the headlight high / low beam selector switch, it is on the left floor board by the parking brake assembly.

The headlight hi/lol beam switch. The floor pans have been replaced and the switch was relocated up near the firewall by the e-brake cable passthrough.

As shown in the video I posted. I consider that part of the floor board.

This looks like a promising place. Thoughts?

That looks good. Just be sure it won't interfere with the parking brake pedal use.
BTW, if you have a GM type column (which you should), you can put in the turn signal switch with headlight high / low functionality and add a relay.
