Backup Light and Shift indicator switch replacement

There are types of switches, one is a reverse switch only and the other
works on cars that have up shift indicators. The regular reverse switch is
on the top of the tranny in front of the selector... underish the air
box... it screw into the top. The one for cars with the up shift light is a
larger switch that mounts from the side using two screws and has a multi
pin connector going to it... It's black and also in the same general area.
Both the 4K in my '84 8V and my AGB in my '87 16V used the larger switch.
