So I have a 1968 Bronco that was originaly a three on the tree. I put a T-18 from a 1979 Bronco in it. My question is where was the backup light switch located originally for both vehicles? Looking to find the original switch wires and tie them to a new switch for the T-18. Any help?

Old one is on the engine side of the steering column. T18 should have one in the top cover.

My 66 didnt have backup at all ever. I added it though. Found the pics on here of where it goes for my 3 on the tree.

There are two wires on the fender side of the column. 90 degree male and female spade connectors on them. I'm going to test them but will look around on the engine side. There are two similar wires coming off the T-18 dont recall from exactly where but will test them for continuity with trany in reverse. Assumed they were the neutral start switch.Thanks for your help.
