Hydraulic Brake Light Switch

Anybody running one? I'm trying to figure out how to plumb one of these and I'm not sure where to get the correct fittings. I need to go from the SAE brake lines and "T" into a 1/8" NPT for the switch. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Hydraulic Brake Light Switch

The only way I can think of is to use a 1/8" npt T and use a 1/8" thread fitting to adapt to the inverted flare brake line in each end of the T. I dont remember seeing a brake line T with a 1/8" npt port.

They make a brake line T with an 1/8" port. Bought mine from local parts house....in their brass fitting drawers.
