Want to buy a switch that automatically turns on my reversing lights. I have a 1967 beetle and any help/advice would be much appreciated.

Maybe someone here has one???? ANYONE??

Yes,
I have one that screws into the back of the speedo also
- between the speedo & Cable.....
When the cable goes backwards, it switches on the reversing lights....

Never seen one anywhere else....

Must have been made for VWs.....

there was a guy in the philipines selling a bunch of the genuine hella speedo switches on samba last week. do a search under reverse and you should find them.

Problem: I got probed by Aliens last night...............and I think I like it!.........E.T call ME.
