Reverse light switch

If you are going to have a reversing light then a switch on the gearbox is best plan.
Reversing light must also have a warning light on the dash.
It's not practical to mount the switch on the chassis as there is too much flexibility to give a positive action.
Once adjusted, has proved very reliable.
The long bolt holding the bracket will need to be a bit longer as the socket head is normally counter-bored into the gearbox housing.

I agree with your statement about fitting the switch to the gearbox, I fitted mine to the body work and as you stated, it has its problems, not sure why I didn’t think about fitting it the gear box, probably because I’m not so clever as you🧐. Anyway, when the switch fails I’ll fix it to the box👍
