[TR] brake light switch

[TERRY SMITH]

Hi, Bob.  Again I'm probably in the minority here, but I've always thought simple is better, and that the hydraulic brake switch was unneccessarily complicated...at least by today's standards.  I simply got an adjustable--I think general motors--plastic brake switch, drilled a hole in the master cylinder housing, and put it in.  Simple spade terminals.  Worked fine for about 8 years, before I had to replace it.  Maybe six dollars.  ...But then I'm not overly concerned with concourse.  

Best,
Terry Smith, '59 TR3A  Daily Driver
