Park brake light
« on: January 07, 2015, 07:06:18 PM »
This hole is 3/4" big.  The car is a K code GT.  I am assuming it is for the brake warning light?   Is the size of the hole correct? Thanks for any input.

Most likely seat belt warning light.  Does the car have push-button seat belts?

I am not sure as the car was all boxed up. I will take a look tomorrow. Thanks Charles!

If it is on the the left hand side between the headlight switch and the wiper switch it would be the parking brake warning light.  Right side between the ignition and cig lighter is where the seat belt light went.  According to the parking brake light instructions I got when i bought a NOS one from AMK a long time ago the, the hole should be .68 inches (+.015, -.005)

Thanks Chris.  it is on the right side below the ignition switch.  The car is a pony interior car.  Every thing is boxed up and I didn't want to dig thru it all, but I guess I'll have to. Thanks!

GT350 6S#476 had the parking brake warning light. 
 Link below is a very short video of the light in action. I hope it works. :-\

All the e brake warning lights I'm finding original to the car were mounted on the outer surface (headlight switch side of the column)  Looks more like the seat belt light location

Don't have one handy to measure :(

Wouldn't the parking brake warning light and seat belt warning light have the same diameter hole since the housings are the same, only a different lens inside?
