    Hi fella's

    I've fitted the Cylinder and braised lines, bled the system and its perfect.

    I just can't work out the brake light switch, I have taken the kill switch apart but still cant figure out how it connects, is it just a case of snipping the wires and soldering them back together?

    Just unplug the 2 spade connectors on the OE wiring and cut the new brake switch wires to length and crimp or solder new male spade connectors onto them.

    Just plug them into the OE connectors and wrap insulating tape round to keep the weather out etc.

    No need to alter the OE wiring at all.

    Just thought you must have unPlugged the 2 spade connectors already if you have removed the OE cylinder so all you need to do is fit the spades and connect the wires from the new switch

    That's right mate

    Or if the connectors fit the OE plugs as they are you can just leave them long and coil the wire up or route it in such a way to take up the slack.
