Type 9 gearbox, reverse light switch?
I am looking for the small switch that detects when reverse has been selected. Mine has somehow become lost during the engine transplant.
Where can i buy these new?
Does anyone have a spare one lying around?
I have the electrical connector part, its just the switch part that i need.
Thanks

There's 1 on ebay at the moment
Ebay Link
Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary... that's what
gets you.

On my gearbox the switch fits into a small circular housing just in front of where the gear lever bolts on, on the right hand side. It should have two
round pins protruding from it.

Unfortunately i dont have my one to compare! but the mating electrical plug has two sockets on it for two terminals. Maybe as you say the 4 speed
switch is slightly different. I am not sure it will work so probably better to keep hunting around.
There is a guy on Ebay selling them (as per link above) so will buy from there i think. Thanks for trying though.
