Default Hobbs Switch

Anyone have pictures of their Hobbs Switch install?
I need an idea as to how to hook it up to the brake vacuum hose.
I have one hookup to the brake booster for the boost gauge and BOV.
Need to have another outlet for the Hobbs Switch.
Thanks...

I think I recommended this before to you: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-f...on-blocks.html

I went with the black anodized with black fittings. Really clean way to mount all my vacuum accessories. My Hobbs switch just screws into it. Just make sure to get plugs for any holes you aren't going to use.
