I just installed a 19mm MC in my car, but the sensor has only one male prong on it. I need a two pronged sensor.

Is there a source for new ones? Or does someone have any good condition used ones?

One more thing:
There are 2 version of this single ended switch:

1. will make contact and light up when the pressure drops but will shut-off afterwards. Try to avoid this.

2. will make contact and when the pressure drops and will remain that way until you press the reset switch. Note the black bump next to the electrical contact. Its a rubber boot over the reset switch.
This is the one you want for your safety as the pressure drop will not go unnoticed.

I've experienced the pressure drop once. Trust me, it won't go unnoticed... Something about the pedal going all the way to the floor and the car pretty much not slowing down at all kinda makes you notice.

I pumped the pedal once, and had brakes. But I blew my braking point for turn 1, and did the rest of the lap kind of slowly until I could exit the track...
