Two things-
1) Vehicle Inspection passing/failing GREATLY depends on who you go to. My mechanic passed me after I left the truck overnight (in December) and we all know how these things smoke when cold. I also passed without a muffler- you cant miss that unless you are completely deaf
yeah ive been around the block on that. ive seen all different kinds of inspections. the guy i go to checks the horn, lights, signals, checks the ball joints and brakes, tread depth, and puts a rag over the exhaust to see if theres a leak. you could bring in a lamborghini with side pipes and it would get the same check as granny's 83 ****** wagon.
but he is also the type that would fail in the case of the truck jumping if he accidentally tried to start it in gear.
im gonna try this universal 3 pole switch and see what happens.
im also still looking for the 2 wire weatherpack style terminal for the ZF reverse switch. i think for the time being i may just put two torpedo connectors on there and pack it full of silicone.
