Brake test light switch thing
I kept the old brake light switch from the donor as i thought it may come in handy and now i have thought of a use for it.
I was going to use it as the handbrake light switch but it is a bit bulky.
Has anyone got any pics of how they have mounted theirs so i can get some ideas?
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I used the door switches that used to light the courtesy light in my donor. They're pretty small and fit nicely under the handbrake lever.

I used a Volvo 480 handbrake assembly with the switch built in.

sorry to barge in but can the same warning light be used for handbrake and brake reservoir fluid level/test switch?
my tintop uses the same light for both so was wondering if i could do it that way.

it sure can (but as far as i can see, there still no requirement for a handbrake warning light)
