So "reversing lights" is Aussy for what the US calls "backup lights?" Interesting. I've never heard of such a switch, and it's not on the microfilm, but I'd love to hear a confirmation from someone else. The tranny-mounted switch is really not hard to install. Doesn't yours have a screw-in plug in that hole already? If you go that route be prepared for an oil bath: the fluid level is above the switch!
