Reverse lights and switch?

Ok. Since I'm crazy and want to use my CCKW for real work I would feel much better if it had reverse lights on it but I'm not sure on how to do it. My dad suggested I have a switch that I push every time I go to back up and while that would be easy I find that would be a pain to have to do every time I want to back up. I want to put a switch that is physically pushed by the shifter when I put the truck into reverse but I'm not sure on that either. Any ideas?

You can find them on old trucks (40's-50's) in junk yards. I don't know if they still have 2 speed rear ends.

That will be hard to find but I think I can figure something else out. I like the idea of shifter mounted switch though so I think that is the way to go.
