"low profile" back up light switch T56
Hello everyone,
Can someone point me in a direction were to find a low profile backup light switch for the t56, standard switch hits the transmission tunnel(Datsun 260z).
I know that there is a Ford unit with cables but i do not have a part number for that.
Can some one help?

Be careful, switches have a different reach into the trans , as installed, even if they have the same thread. The best solution is to locally modify the tunnel for clearance. Yes a ball peen hammer and heavy strikes.

I made a "temporary" one, it will work for now.
Cut down the housing and the terminal as well, solder two wires and some heat shrink tube around..
