Ok dumb question. My buggy doesn't have any brake lights on it and I need to get a brake light switch from Advance. But how do I hook it up?

I always order mine for a 68 bug 2 post but you will need a "T" to t it in.

Some of us have two of them hooked up after the turning brake, one for each wheel, makes like turn signals.

Hey Hippie,

Not sure if anyone actually answered your question. The Brake switch is a pressure switch that goes anywhere in your brake lines. SubySteve is correct, you will need a T to install the brake switch but be careful what switch you buy and make sure to match the T. I believe most brake switches are 1/8 pipe tread but your break lines are probably the standard VW bubble flare. That means you need a mismatch T with two bubble flare and one pipe thread. You will probably have a hard time finding that T in any advanced auto store.

I would give one of the woodsbuggy.com sponsors a call. I usually call Tim at SouthernBuggies or Gary at Davis Racing. Both of these guys will help you out and make sure you get the right parts.

Good Luck..
