Can I ask why you did not use the original switch? I am guessing that 1: the toogle uses a round hole and 2: the LED lets you know if you accidently leave it on.
Looks great too. Is it an LED Cargo light?

Drop that 638 in there, hit the throttle, and that toggle switch will put a hole in the back of your head 'bout the size of a .22 ..........

well i did not even have a light to begin with.....cut the hole
so did not have the stock switch.............just used what i had...
the LED ....yes just tell's you if it's on....or should be!!!!!
and NO it's not a LED light....most venders sell them...

I will be doing a lot of night car show's next summer using this 69 to tow the 85 ....just want a little light back there...

it does throw out a lot of light...lite's up the whole bed....

Early Classic Enterprises makes a LED 3rd brake light kit that goes in the cargo light area and also retains the cargo light on each side of the brake light.
