Draco,

Last night I installed 2 new BLS and added my own relay wired as shown in prior post. The relay works great but the switches still close a bit late but much better than the old ones. They don't require much force on the brake pedal to come on now but they still don't come on with very light press.

How much do you move your pedal before yours come on?

Since I now have a relay in place I can use a small micro switch on the pedal to pick the relay, I'm think about doing this, I think a very small micro switch should be easy to install.

Also, I cut my switch open and sure enough one of the internal contacts is really gouged from arcing. I think your solution for arc surpressing with a relay will solve this issue. Thanks for the work on this.

I will post some pics soon.
