Window stop micro switch

The tiny metal arm on the micro switch has broken. It's a pain in bum as I have to drill the old one off and then have fun fitting the new one. Does anyone know where I can order or pick up a new one? I'm located in Kingston, Surrey. Is there an Alpha crossover part number I can try? I don't want to wait a week for one to arrive.

I've attached a pic of the relay.

Jagpurr described it here: Another micro switch is mounted on the window lift mechanism to sense the position of the glass. (normally open , closed when glass is in droped position). ( wiring colours at first connector are yellow/blue and red/black { or green/black and red/black on other door} ) We will call this switch “Dâ€

I have got on in my hand, but I am pretty sure its the passenger side. If you can take your off and post a pick, Ill tell you if its the same and Ill post it to you FOC if you promise to sort me out if mine breaks, unlikely as I will only have the car another 6 months.

The microswitch is a part of the complete window regulator, so dont think you can buy it separately.

Saying that, David Askew will probably sell you one for a tenner.

You the man, Con. If you do have it, I'll get one ASAP and replace it.

Thanks,
John

Looking at it, you just flip it for either side, you may have to reverse the wires in the multiplug, but I doubt it.

PM your address and Ill pop it in the post on Monday.

You dont need to send me a replacement, only if I need on in the future, which I think is unlikely.

You're an absolute life saver! Thank you so much. I'll PM you now and you have my word I'll replce it if you need me to.
