opb master cylinder warning switch

Has anyone fitted a balance bar and master cylinders from OPB? If so what did you do for a brake fluid level sensor - as far as i can tell their reservoir doesn't contain a float switch....

can't really see how you can detect fluid level without a sensor; maybe some sort of sensor in the pressure line?

I used a Sierra cap on my master cylinder.
