no backup switch

[bobtail]

mine is a 69. once the shiftstick has been moved to the floor, where do you move the backup switch to. for thirty years i used a toggle switch and a indicator lamp to let me know that it is on. i'm tired of lifting the hood every time i want to back up. and then stopping down the road because i can't remember if i turned the light off and i can't see the indicator light because it's under the hood as well. just kidding. seriously folks where is a good place to mount a switch.

I have a four speed. But I think the three speed is the same. Go to Hurst back up switches. Then the instructions show and where to install. Works on both 3 and 4 speeds.

Yes all of my Hurst floor shifters have had a mounting location for the backup switch . I broke the original switch but went to a local parts store and found a switch that works - just a minor mod involved to install.
