I have purchased my last aftermarket switch. All have failed. What is the best source for a good German ignition switch fo a 75?

I ordered the Genuine Porsche from Pelican and received an email a few days later stating it had to come from Germany and there was a 6 week wait plus a 20% increase to pay for shipping. So I bought the $8 part they had in stock and it's been working OK for 2K miles. The one I replaced was made in Germany so I opened it up and cleaned/lubricated it and it checked out good so I'm keeping it for a spare. I had an intermittent problem and replaced the switch plus installed a Ford solenoid mod at the same time. Maybe the Ford solenoid will extend the life of the Chinese switch.
