Dave it can be done and controlled by the Transmission being placed into 
reverse. I did it on my 4A using an overdrive isolator switch. On the 
Transmission top cover there is a boss that needs to be drilled and tapped 
for the correct thread. It's overtop of the control rod that engages reverse 
gear. This basic transmission was used in sedans as well as TR's and the 
sedans had back up lights. Wiring is straight forward from there using the 
switch the same as you would any switch in a circuit.
If you'd like more information write to me and I'll fill in the blanks for 
you.
