So ive looked everywhere under the dash for my brakelight switch and I cant find the s.o.b. Is it that obvious or is there a chance its been removed. I figured it would be hard to miss a 4 inch long plastic piece with a button on the end.

Follow the brake petal up--if you don't see it it ain't there. (did I just say that?)

Down by the rod that connects the brake pedal to the m/c.

It's got two wires going to it. One is orange and the other is white. If you can find the neutral safety switch on the top of your steering column near the firewall, you'll see the brake light switch right above it. The connectors on both of these switches kind of get in the way of each other.

You can always just hang your hand out the window like the good-ole' days.
