>I need to make a bracket to install a electric switch on the brake pedal
to
wire in parallel with the pressure switch. The switch I am going to use is
a
spst normally open, like the one used on my truck.  So, when the pedal is
not being pressed the switch is activated and the circuit is open, press
the
pedal and close the circuit

My car came with this setup (by the PO - probably because the MGB switch he
used is cheaper than the pressure switch required).  He mounted a brake
pedal switch from a later model MGB in place of the stop bolt on the pedal
assembly.  It is easily viewed from the engine bay.

Makes so much sense that it is a bit of an embarasment that it took MG to
show the way.  ;-)
