Hopefully, lesson learned. Thanks So much for the NAPA salesman knowing what he has for sale. Here is a page full of tapaerd pipe taps with the NAPA logo. https://www.napaonline.com/napa/en/search/?text=pipe tap&isTools=true&referer=search_form-tools 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have better luck in the UK finding and replacing it with a mechanical switch such as pictured below. That picture reminded me I'd got one in the shed when I swapped out the old master cylinder to a dual booster pedal on a 59 Chevy Apache I used to have. I found it, screwed it on underneath the floor between between the brake and clutch pedal. Same connectors plugged straight in and now I've got brake lights again. 5 minute fix! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 many of the British cars use these very same brake light switches..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
