I think I have a box full of those "press to test" lights, (somewhere) in my
attic from my days in the air force, if anyone wants one.

  The best ideal I have ever seen is to put an aircraft type "press to test"
  light in the hole & wire it into the circuit in parallel with the OD
solenoid.
  When the solenoid is activated the light is lit. You can leave the chrome
  escutcheon in place that reads "Overdrive" & the light is a quick visual
reference
  to determine if you in or out of overdrive in the heat of battle. Also, if
the
  OD solenoid quits working the press to test feature is a quick way to
  determine if you have power to the circuit or not (unless the bulb is burned
out,
  too). Sorry I don't have any photos available.
