Has anyone who's got a toyota T50 gearbox in their dattos ever bothered to hook up the reverse lights?

So far what ive done is got a relay switch that is activated when earthed which then allows current in the globe wires.

only problem is i cant get the earth to work for revese gear, it only works for 5th gear....

i cant find on the gearbox, the wire where i should hook this relay to so that when i select reverse the lights come on.

there are 2 wires. the one i had it on is for top gear, and the other one doesnt seem to do anything.

anyone have any experience with this??

thanks

perhaps you are using the 5th gear switch and the reverse switch is busted?
When I did mine I put a wire from the ignition barrel (power) to one side of the switch, then another wire from the other side of the switch through the reverse lights and grounded it to the chassis.
