I have a 1966 Pontiac Tempest with a automatic transmission with the shifter on the column. The question I have is my reverse lights come on when I shift into drive. How do I get them to come on during reverse instead? Any help will be much appreciated. 

The switch assembly sounds to be out of adjustment, this switch is mounted on the shifter assembly and is adjustable. It's been years since I've had an AT '66 so I don't recall if you can access/adjust the switch by just removing the indicator plate (Pry up gently) or if the console needs to come out. Check you service manual it will have the details for this. If you don't have a service manual, You should.
