T56 Reverse Light Switch

[NelsonN]

Does anyone have any good methods to get the reverse light switch out of a t56 transmission? I've tried modifying a socket but the socket was just too shallow and it kept slipping too. There's also not much clearance for the spanners that I've tried.

 

I might have to resort to jacking up the passengers side and filling from the original fill hole unless anyone has any other recommendations?

I just used a big spanner and very carefully applied the pressure to avoid it stripping the nut.

I just used a big spanner. But I have also jacked up the car and filled up with 4.5L
