Brake Pressure Switch Question

My Brake Pressure Switch on the Disc Brake Valve started leaking, as they are known to do. I was just wondering what simple solutions other people have used to keep from losing all their brake fluid. My initial thought is to just take it out and fill the hole with a short bolt. Would that work? I'm going to have a custom dash with out the brake warning light, so I don't need the switch to work.

you should be able to stick a pipe plug in, but I dont reccommend that.

I would find another switch and change it out.
