Re: 48 overdrive kickdown switch

I believe the proper type connector was a Douglas terminal and while those are still available, are more specialty items and are usually mail order. An acceptable substitute can be made with a modern crimp on .157 size bullet terminal available at most parts stores.
It has a slightly different shape but fits the terminal on the switch. If you remove the plastic insulator off the terminal and solder the wire instead of crimping, then cover the connection with a piece of rubber insulator sleeve or heat shrink it is indistinguishable.
On the wires exiting the firewall, if you can supply more info on where they start I can probably help figure out where they go.
