I think the passenger side is the neutral safety switch and the drivers
side enables OD only in 3-4 gear. The reverse switch is in the back.
I seriously doubt it is a neutral safety switch. There never was one on any
Spit. Since the box was a non OD originally, I would be inclined to
believer that the extra switch was included in the mechanism that was added
for the OD. It is most likely the remains of the backup lights circuit for
a car that originally had no switch mounted in the rear of the top plate.
I Bet Andy Mace can come up with a definitive answer!
