Brake Light Switch Options
So the '33 roller came with a pressure switch plumbed into the brake line, and I dutifully wired it up for brake lights. It works OK, but one thing I don't like is that the brake lights are not illuminated in those times when you need only very, very light pressure to hold position. Also, the first pressure switch on it failed, which I learned when I very nearly got rear ended one afternoon.
The '32 roller from Pete & Jake's does not have the pressure switch. For you guys actually building, what are you using for a brake light switch? I have one of these "universal" switches from Speedway,
but it really doesn't lend itself to a through the floor pedal. Can you point me to something better, or do I need to plumb in a pressure switch and live with the way they work?Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
