AutoAtlanta sells them but sell your plasma a few months before you can justify it

If AA sells them then I'm sure other places do as well. I remember ordering switches for the shop and being shocked by the price.

Rory you are correct the lead lengths and colors are different than 911, it also has a 12 pin rectangle plug which differs from 911.

The internal switch architecture is the same so 911s can be converted but to do it right is a good bit of work.
