I did that, the ally bit on the front comes off with some picking, then i just letter stamped REV into it and stuck it back on,
was fine for IVA main thing is to interlock the switch with the neutral light so that you can not activate reverse while in a forward gear.
hope this helps

is that a requirement for the iva or just something you did for precaution ?

I think that linking the reverse with the neutral light is a must, accidentally switching the reverse on when moving forward
wouldn't be a good thing! I have a main switch and a small joystick + have also linked it with the brake light switch, applying the brakes
switches the reverse off.
For marking the switch I used Letraset.

It's not a requirement. Only requirements I can see are that the mechanism will propel the vehicle backwards and the control must be reachable
from the driver's seat.

just ordered a universal brake light switch to wire inline on the reverse circuit, going to fit it behind the clutch peddle so the reverse button only
works when the clutch is pressed ....
