brake system

[jimm1009]

I troubleshot my brake light system and found that my hydraulic brake switch (old style) has failed.
I know that there is a PS Magazine article on the conversion to the Air Brake Switch but practicly speaking, where can you order the entire kit? The electrical connections are the easy parts but what about the rest?
I ordered and received a new style air activated switch but there is an adapter fitting that is required to add the brake switch a retain the air line that is currently installed in that port by itself.
Has anyone had success with ordering the entire kit or is it something that I will have to piece together?

I withdraw my questions. I found a link below in one last search and now have what I need.

That is the one I used. Very easy conversion. Get it. Takes less time to install than ordering a pizza.

Thanks dabtl for the intel on the Saturn kit. I was planning on upgrading mine in the near future and figured their kit was the way to go.

got mine from saturn too. jay is the man and the job was easy. only 1 harness connector to change.

I did have to get a plug from the store to supplement the kit and plug the hole where the old switch was.

Little trick I had to learn the hard way...Put a little tool oil inside the air switch. It frees up that diaphram that has been sitting for however many years. Might as well get yourself a turn signal relay too!
