Default ZF6 back up lamp switch ('93 Coupe)

Anyone know a good source for these? I have not yet done a full trouble shooting because its a PIA to get under and mess with the switch, but I suspect this switch is bad and it does not seem to be available in any of the local big name parts stores (autozone, pepboys, etc). Trying to get a head start in case that end up being the problem, I dont want to have to scramble for inspection.

corvette central has them. I took mine out, cleaned it, and it worked for a few weeks then acted up again. I replaced the switch and its been fine.

You need a box wrench with about a 1" offset. I think it is the same size as a oxygen sensor, like 7/8" in size. I had to remove the slave cylinder to do the swap, but did not have to open the clutch hydraulic system at all, just unbolt, swap, and get teh slave mounted back up. Not hard to do on jack stands.

I'm running the corvette central switch as well. There is a used switch on ebay now, but for the hassle, may as well go new.
