Have you tried Partsgateway.com?  Online breakers brokers.  You enter your details and the part you need and they send it out to quarry motors, BMW bitz etc.

Just don't buy anything from raw spares in Croydon as there hopeless

They drive on the wrong side! ;)

Cheers for the fast responses,

I'll do the partsgateway thing now.
Ebay search and save done
noticed some US units but realised they would be wrong handed.

kkodal, I did think about that but having opened the switch (to give it a clean and see if there was anything obviously wrong) I don't think the internals can be the same and there is some complex circuitry in there as well.
