Here you can see how i used one tractor direction lights indicator from a hardware store and i add two LEDs.
- In Neutral N means that neither of inputs is active and no LEDs are lit.
- For FWD one 12V input is active and one green LED is active.
- For REV the rear 12V input is active and amber LED is active.

There are several terminals on that selector which you could use for signaling direction to other devices, for example turning on the rear lights.
Or there was a push button option where you can press down on the knob to activate horn contact. This could be used as addition safety feature with direction change. Later on i will add stickers saying N, FWD and REV for MOT.
Other switch i use to turn on heater and the pump. I love the signal LED on the rim :).

The cover is cut from 4mm transparent plexi plate where i sand the underside and spray paint it black. This makes the top gloss black and additionaly color cant be damaged on top.
