I have a Aircooled 4 speed box in my 1990 bus. but the revering lights don't work as there is no switch in the gearbox. where Should it be fitted? there's a plug in the nose cone on the n/s, should it go in here? thanks Steve

Have a look here at the gearbox diagram (which I assume are Aircooled boxes seeing as it's for a 1980 van) and see if anything looks familiar

You have to register to see part numbers



part 39a?

Depends on what Aircooled box you have fitted a T25 box with a side entry selector linkage the switch is here.


Bay gearbox with front selector entry it is in the front cover next to the selector shaft.

Looking at the vagcat diagram it lists a switch or a bung in that position

Bung is 113301229A
Switch is 251941521

both use a seal too N0138165 (basically a 18mm washer)

Switch is £15 at heritage but reduced to £9 at JK

However brickwerks seem to sell it for £5.46......well it looks the same and is M18

Also fitted as reverse light switches on the early DK code gearboxes

Brilliant. thanks guys thats awesome, exactly what I needed to know.yes part 39a looks right. The box is a side entry gear selector, code DK i think. I'll order a switch now. thanks again. Steve
