      We have already lowered the e-brake for the swivel seats, and I remember the e-brake sensor being incorporated into the handle. My plan is to retain that and somehow get that in the mix with the linear actuator.

      That's a good idea so the driver can see right on the instrument panel if the e-brake is engaged or not. Unfortunately I already disassembled by e-brake and shoved all the wiring back into the battery case.
      
      Let me know if you figure out which two wires completes the "e-brake is on" circuit.
      
      I like your switch. I went this controller to experiment a bit but will likely end up with a simple switch as well.

      Did you ever figure out how to get the parking brake sensor to signal correctly when your linear actuator is engaged?
