Can anyone explain how to get the brake light switch re-installed in a Freelander?? I removed the original one blindly with a twist/pull motion. But I can't get the new one back into the bracket that holds it, and looking at the shape of the hole the switch is supposed to go through, I can't understand how it ever fit in the first place! The new one is identical in size and shape to the old relay switch; nothing is broken on the bracket or the switch. There are just no diagrams, tutorials, or any specific instruction about this part!
 
i did it a long time ago probably 5 years and I am sure it pusses either up or down into position you need a torch and on your back to have a proper look
 
I can see the place where it goes just fine. I just cannot figure out how the switch goes back into the hole without breaking. I could force it probably, but that would almost definitely break the mechanism. Surely someone has a more detailed explanation of how to get it back in without destroying anything?
