Here is the Pelican article that references the part number. I found it for sale but the picture shows it with the two black tubes that the 914 switch uses. It is a vw part number. Not sure if the picture is wrong.

Thanks so much Bruce, I always appreciate your support.

I found the same articles last night and ordered the ghia switch, identical part but half the price. Porsche no longer makes the 924 switch, and could only find a brown switch on eBay and would need black to match my car

If you got it from CIP1 double check the wiring (compare it to your original switch). Pin 2 and 3 are likely reversed. Don't ask how I know.
And for what it's worth, I couldn't make that switch work to save my life (even after the reversed wiring discovery). Kept blowing fuse 8. I worked on this problem for WEEKS!

I agree with the above. I've been told by a couple of people already, that these replacement VW switches are of very poor quality and do not work properly. I was thinking of doing this conversion with a new aftermarket VW switch and decided against it for this very reason. You could probably go with a good used VW switch. There should be enough of those around. Check theSamba classifieds.
