Yes, it will bolt straight in. You can then remove those troublesome solenoids.

Gear box switches

The third one is a 4th/5th gear switch which either opens or closes (I can't remember which) when 4th or 5th is selected. The wiring connects to a little valve in some of the vacuum tubing going to the carb (if a petrol engine) and controls the EGR which is the exhaust gas recirculator. There was absolutely no difference to mine whether it was connected or not so I got rid of the whole lot to simplify things. I just left the switch in place.
