No sign of switch or mount for it.
Maybe its an earlier version selector mount.

Switch is mounted in a hole in the back of the bracket that hold the gear lever, so that the selector for reverse hits it when reverse is engaged. Should be easy to modify the one you have (drill a hole).

The bracket with the hole was only fitted where reversing lights were factory fitted. This was not standard on Australian Landrovers until they became compulsory under ADRs in the mid seventies.

The modification can be made to any bracket or a newer bracket fitted. Interchangeable (I'm pretty certain) on all Series Landrovers except for Stage 1 (which have a different switch as standard) and some preproduction 80".
