Very creative! I made several of these switches years ago when Radio Shack was still in business, it's just a normally open contact switch that the shifter crossbar pushes against in Reverse. Done like a true Rambler mechanic! Terry

I dug out my spare, and took a pic, but it looks like you got your answer. Here it is anyway, just in case someone needs to see what an original one looks like.

AHA!
Jesus I need to get the correct TSM, sorry guys. I only have a 1970 manual and it's just not cutting it for these very specific questions I'm running into these days. I did find a few on Ebay today. I'll be pulling the trigger on one tonight. Thank you madamas

Does anyone happen to have a picture of the switch on the T-10? Non-Hurst
My '68 AMX has nothing, and I've been wondering about this for weeks now.

Ok, sorry I misunderstood.... The harness end that goes into the switch has the female bullet connectors.

I just put in the new 5 speed and the original wires were green and brown at the transmission, just like the TSM wiring diagram. I also had a hard time years ago on the new wiring harness finding the connector but your post tweaked some grey matter so I checked the old harness.
I also checked under the dash this morning and the green/brown wires connect to the same brown/brown-white as on the original harness. I have a 1969 AMC Hurst shifter and 4 speed that has the bracket for the reverse switch. It's different from the Hurst Competition Plus shifter that I also have. It does not have the reverse switch bracket. They both have the same bolt pattern to bolt to the transmission. I believe the Competition Plus I have is the aftermarket or dealer install version.
