Title: Reverse Light switch on 02J with seat clutch actuator.
Post by: Dave_IOW on 29 September 2013, 23:26
Put it in this section as will probably ever be used in a mk2.

Anyway, the Seat clutch actuator means you can't use the normal reverse light switch on an 02J.

If you are using these bits (not everyone could have gone the hydro peddle box route), could you explain where you've mounted your switch, what you've used and how you've done it. Would be greatly appreciated :afro:

Also a picture of the Seat actuator in place on top of the box would be amazing  :wink:

When I converted mine useing the seat acuator I used a mk3 16v box and kept the reverse switch bolted on the box .. I do remember it wos a pig to fit the cable through while getting a bar to move the acuator to get cable through (2 man job) then once all bolted up wasn't enough slack on cable so clutch kept slipping so I took the black washer thing off the acuator.. My reverse lights didn't work after so I bought a new switch but turned out to be a blown fuse in the end

I literally can't fit it on the 02J box, have to grind some off as it is.

No chance I'm swapping the 02J out, it's got a Quaife diff in there :wink:
