S3/S4c/V8s Dash Light Dimmer Switch

[upperthong]

The dimmer switch on my S4c has died! It is Lucas part number 205SA. It is a 3 point switch and could have been intended for use on something other than a dimmer on another car. There doesn't appear to be a reference for it anywhere on the web and have not seen one for sale on e-Bay, etc. Have tried the TVR breakers and they too don't have one. Does anyone know which major car manufacturer used this switch and what car it was put in?

Please see the attached photo.
any info would be appreciated ..........................

Hi
Thanks for your reply .......... very much appreciated ............... and any suggestions are welcome. I opened the switch last week and someone (I suspect the previous owner's garage), has already been in the switch and the internals are missing! No metal contacts are there. Only plastic!
The search goes on !
Can't believe there isn't a listing anywhere for this part!

I have been reliably informed that the same switch was used on the S1 and S2 sweeping dashboard and was used for lights, heater, etc. Anyone know where I can find one?

Thanks for all replies.
I would like to stay original if at all possible.
Yes, the early S3 had the same switch in a bank of 3 on the lower part of the dash.

I'll go for that !

I should be a detective ................. sorted! Will be able to see my dials in the dark again!
