Where can I get a boot light switch from or what is it off, the one that is in the rear wing near the fuel filler.
Mine has a mind of it's own, in side is corroded a little, possibly with being stood outside all the time.

Mine too. Though I've not researched why. A squirt of WD40 perhaps ?

I have taken it apart and the terminals are corroded and will need replacing, I have found one on two different sites now, they both want around £12 plus postage and packing, sounds like a bit of a rip off to me.

The interior ones are off a Vauxhall Astra. I got my replacements from a breakers yard for free when I was buying other stuff.
Maybe the boot one is Vauxhall too.

ive got a feeling the boot switch is a rover door switch, but not sure
