   Well, JC Whitney used to have a kit to install for a light reminder, I 
haven't looked lately.
   As far as the key issue it isn't that hard to change the wires around and 
you will have to use a key switch later than a 65. You can still pull the key 
out while a 65 is running. There is a possibility that you might be able to 
get a 66 tumbler and still use your switch.
