      TKO Reverse Switch

      Does anyone know where I can get a TKO reverse light switch with Weatherpack connector as shown below?

      A stock application or part number would be great.

      Pep Boys or Autozone should have build-em yourself Weatherpak connectors. That looks just like the one I used for my T5.

      Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. I need the switch itself.

      Ah crap. I can't believe you didn't get one with the trans? Where did you buy it from?

      I got it from Keisler and the switch they provided has two threaded studs so close together that you can't use nuts and I can't find a connector that goes over the studs either. I have tons of Weatherpack connector parts and thought it would be easier to find a switch locally than to find the connector. I'll go to Forte's if necessary - thanks toofun.

      AHH Another dissatisfied KEISELER customer!! I still cant see how they stay in business with the amount of screw ups they have.

      No problem on the Forte info. I used a ton of their parts for my tko 600 conversion. They fit and work flawlessly.

      GOODLUCK.

      I think it's almost purely because they came to market first, and thus got all of the attention from magazines.

      I like that switch a lot more than the kiesler one, too. I might have to make a little order myself...thanks for the heads-up.

      I've made my peace with Keisler but can't stomach trying to get their help on this issue. I checked CC5S and tried to cross it with some stock applications to no avail so Monday I'll be ordering from Forte's. Five Speed Transmissions has them too, but I can't get them to answer the phone.

      Thanks guys!

      I used a connector from a t5 fox-body. It has a push on boot with 2 barrel shaped female connectors. Chopped it out of the harness at a boneyard.

      I like it because the boot snaps over the OD of the switch to help keep dirt/water out.

      5 speed transmissions never answer the phone BUT they DO call you back. No matter though since they get their parts from FORTE. I bought a 5 speed transmission setup and the baggy with the switch was packaged with the FORTE label...
