So just finished the T5 swap ... everything went quite well and the first test drive on the interstate was good ... very different from a 4 speed toploader

Question : is there a kit to be able to hook up the back up lights?

Thanks

 

Good news......you don't need anything. The positive wire going to the rear lights, I connected it to one side of the switch with a bullet connector and the other side of the switch, I connected to an on/off positive wire in the fuse box. Thats it. Hope I helped.

 

I grabbed a couple of connectors that Ford puts on their oil pressure units from a couple junk cars and hooked them the same as above. Make sure the power source turns off with the ignition or your lights might stay on all the time parked in reverse.

 

Hey, this is great information as I am fixing to swap in a 5 speed. Have not had back up lights since taking the c-4 out back in 73.

I just bought the tail panel with no back up lights Fixed!
