Default Tremec reverse light switch

I just found this on the net. This guy look like he searched for it. A local NAPA store should have this. Much better than the studs that comes on the Tremecs.

Sweet.

The switch looks like it is $22.49 for the Echlin Ignition one.
The cheaper version is $9.99.
The connector is $17.29.

I may have to stop by NAPA on the way home one night this week.

The cheapest way I found was just to solder the ends onto the studs. This works and is OK. I just wanted something that was easy to remove. This is working just fine for me.
