A friend just sent me an e-mail asking what to use to replace his faulty brake light switch. I replaced mine a bunch of years ago with one that was far better than the original and got it from a loca

Hi Mike, Some friendly guy from the Netherlands I believe, (thanks Marc!)pointed me in the direction of a the BMW part you're referring to. I sourced a 1970's BMW switch for brake light duty. Napa P/

There is also a Honda part, available from NAPA, that works great. I don't have the part number here with me, but if anyone is interested, I'll post it up this evening from home. Irv Korey 74 TR6 CF2

The NAPA/Echlin part number for the Honda brake light switch is SL310. I have had one in my car since 1998. When I bought it, it was a stock part at my NAPA. Thanks Irv NAPA has a great website - sea

Irv - that would be very useful info your local NAPA isn't any more likely to have that BMW part (my local NAPA had to order it) than the Triumph part (which also fits some Jags) - but they might act

If you had the TRiumph part in one hand and the Honda part in the other, there's a noticeable difference in the heft of these 2 switches. I'm sure there's a higher standard in build quality as I just

I just noticed on BPNW's website, they have an Intermotor brake light switch for $2.38 and a Lucas switch for $2.87. I think NAPA's price for the Honda switch was $12.99. I'll bet all those prices ar

Bob--Since your brake light switch works as designed (when you pull the pedal back) you can probably adjust the one you have. Note that there are two adjusting nuts that control the depth of the swit

Hi Bob, If I recall correctly, the whole tab that the brake light switch is mounted on can be bent slightly with your bare hands, this quickly solves the problem with little fuss. Kendall San Clement

Push the whole tab and switch in until the switch is bottomed on the pedal. When you release it it will be in perfect adjustment. I haven't 'adjusted' one on a Triumph any other way. Jim PS There's
