Are we talking the push button switches by the speedo here, or the lever switch on the steering column??
IF it's the former, I may have one in my loft from one of my now dead 2.2's.

Right, I'll get up in the loft then, and see what we can find.
If I feel suitably motivated I'll have it with when I pop round my Dad's near Fareham tomorrow. Failing that, well, we can work something out.
