For those who have installed a lightbar on their convertible what have you done to shut off the brake light when the roof is up ?

Some have done nothing and don't mind the light turning ON when the roof is up.

Some have installed a manual switch to turn it off when the roof is off.

Some have installed a relay to control the light when the roof is up.

Let me know,

I will go with the light bar switch if I ever get the bar.

 

I had a manual switch installed when my CDC lightbar was installed, but I plan to change it to an automatic switch when Web Electric Products comes out with one for the '05+ Stangs. There are 2 or 3 vendors currently offering automatic switches (Saleen, for one), but I understand they do not use the factory connectors like Web does.

 

Saw that Roush is selling their Lightbar (which I beleive is a CDC) with a harness that bypas the light when the roof is up.

When I installed my bar I have noticed that there is a detection switch in the roof mecaanism on the passenger side, it's a two way swith that has 3 contacts (common, and two contact that closes when either the roof is up or down). I don't know if it's safe to tap to this swith as I don't have an electrical diagram and don't know where it's going. I think that where Roush connect their harness.

But anyone know more about that Roush bypass harness or the wiring diagram.

Thanks

 

I have the WebElectric switch. Easy install and works perfectly.

 

The WebElectric site does not talk about compatibility with 05's.

Is it a splice type or connectors ?
