    'Sounds like you're talking about Reverse lights and not "brake lights".
    The floor-shifter uses a completely different switch which it mounted on the shifter itself.

    Thank you, but no. I switched the gear shifter from the column to the floor. And I need a picture of the reverse light switch.

    Frank, I don't remember where I got them from. I got 2 when I need it them. They where 12 inch and I cut them to 6 inch. Just for looks and I think they look good. Still automatic trans.
