      i made own switch for the reverse lock out. Its not good to hook it to the brake lights, it will open every time when you hit the brakes. Solenoid will wear out much faster with that kind of setup. I have push button in under the dash thats barely visible.

      Plus, consider if you get on the brakes and want to shift from 6th to 5th...I prefer mine be activated by the ECU, as intended.

      Auts! you are absolutely right, might get some real damage after that! Activated by ecu or switch to push is the way to go!

      Let me know when you figure out a way to do that with my ECU... :D

      I just recently rewired my lockout from my non-functioning GRC module to the brake pedal switch and I'm LOVING not having to two hand the shifter into reverse any longer. Been like that for 4 years now...
