this might confuse someone, so if you like to keep it simple, or like orignal (or original to the model series) do not read any further:
there are other switches used such as on the 56 series that could be neat to have on an older tractor if you have more than basic lighting. one variation of the switch is Off Dim Bright Rear. Rather than having the inconvienience of flipping a switch on your rear light, this switch controls the rear light functions too. Dim and bright positions control the headlights, lighting any instrument and tail lights (and flashers if equipped). the R position turns on the bright headlights, instrument lights, rear work light, and optional floodlights (bad idea but used on the 56 series--too much current through the switch); R also turns off the red tail light and flashers. Other newer models have off, hazards only, road, and field positions. the possibilities to modernize are endless, but so is the wiring nightmare as it would be custom. the need to or desire to is your call.
so if you like to keep it simple and close to original, ignore this post.
