I got an older version or should I say a different one from local truck shop which is a pull up red ****, for split shifter that I use to fire off my NOS system.

Re:Exhaust Brake Switch
Any Eaton two-speed axle switch from the big trucks will work for this application, and they're available at nearly any truck dealership for about $20. They look like FiverBob's Cummins switch in the photo mentioned above.

I dont think I have seen this idea before but what about using one of the old headlight dimming/brightning switches that are floor mounted. I dont have an E Brake so I havent tried this but it is just another idea. Kyle

I have one of these switches from PacBrake and love it. It does, however, have one drawback. It's too bright at night and gets hot when left on for awhile. It gets so hot that it's uncomfortable to leave your finger on it for long. I replaced the switch with a similiar switch from AutoZone with an LED in it instead of the incandescent bulb. It fits the hole perfectly and has the same terminals. The part number is PL-SW15B. The "B" is for the blue LED. The heat is gone and I like the blue LED I also replaced the wire with a thinner wire and ty-wraped it to the shifter. The wire supplied from PacBrake is big and ugly.
