Hi, looking for a good used back up or reverse light switch for my 914...the switch that controls the back up lights when you put the car in reverse, I need affordable shipping to Japan as well. Please email or PM me, thank you.

Not a bad price for
new. When I was looking a couple of years ago, couldn't find a
new one for less than $85.

Hey Jamie, in succession I purchased 3 of these new, and had two of them fail immediately, with torn internal seals that caused leaks. The 3rd one didn't leak, but it also fails to make a reliable connection. Whether or not the lights actually turn on is random, with a bias toward NOT. Frustrating. Maybe a bad design, more likely poor manufacturing of the late switches.

You should check out the condition of the cam follower (pin) 901-303.017.01 if replacing the switch also Jamie. They are known to wear down so even though the switch is okay, it isn't long enough to properly active. Also, they are relatively inexpensive (under $10.00) although I understand that some folks make their own.
