The brake lite switch lever is available  Willcox P/n 40832 it bolts into the hole in pedal where original push rod bolted too. The new pushrod from booster bolts into where old switch lever was. If car is a manual it is just about impossible to do up top left nut on booster without removing dash. You need a 3/8 drive deep socket a uni joint a 150mm 3/8 extension then another 300 extension then another 300 extension then ratchet then you have to try driving it to tighten nut.Take the seat out also. Steve from Jactup should have the brake lite lever. Vacuum supply is from manifold I fitted a tee junction under existing fitting & a hose tail from local auto store
