I'm having a problem with them. The bolt that holds the brake line on the caliper is the wrong thread.

the banjo bolt that holds the brake line in place, it will not fit, something is wrong. does the other side fit? Who did u get the kit from? Might have to give them a call to either swap it out or give you somemore bango bolts to fit. I didn't have any problems with mine, everything fit perfect.
mine fit great also? thats weird that it wont fit, you didnt get it mixed up with another bolt did you?
I got it from www.traxms.com it is the correct part number. I have solved the problem the banjo bolts off of a 1980 Subaru car where the correct thread.
this will be my next mod, how did you know subaru bango would work??

That is pretty neat. What is the purpose of that type of bolt? Do you put a
cottor pin in the hole?
the banjo bolt is a hollow bolt so the brake fluid can travel through it. if you go look at you bolt that holds your brake line on your master cylinder or your brake line on you caliper, that is a banjo bolt.
i though banjo bolts were for crazy people to play with in the woods, before they get you...........................

There is not a kit that I know of. You should beable to get that switch at just about any cycle shop. I found that picture threw google.
I did the brake light mod awhile back. I bought the banjo bolt switch from a guy on Ebay, unfortunately he is no longer on Ebay. But, this place does sell them

Also, here is a good webpage on how to do the mod, I followed it to a tee and it works great!! Brake Light Mod

The worst part is buy the LED bulbs. Don't get the cheapos from Advance Auto or anything. Go to http://www.radlites.com/led_strips_boards.htm
and scroll down to the bottom and get the round 3 wire LED, they aren't cheap, but well worth the price, and VERY VERY bright. Good luck!
