REFLECTOR: Speed Brake Switch Location?

Sat Jan 31 16:53:08 CST 2015

Mine is on the center console under throttle control.  About where the trim control wheel on a Cessna might be located.  The indicator is a part of the annunciator panel.  When it is deployed, a text “SPD BRK” lights up in amber.

I am going thru a 1973 Velo 173 RG. Former owner (Now Deceased) removed the switch and looked like he might of been re-positioning the switch.

1- Wondering if anyone can send me a pic of where they have installed theirs and how it is working?
2- Also wondering if anyone has installed an indicator light on the dash for the speed brake and if so, where and what did they use?
I see on plans it shows a location in front of the Throttle on the left, but I feel that would be bad to accidentally hit that switch when adjusting throttle at high speeds.
