Brake Light Switch

Seems my brake lights flicker on when I am driving normally, does any one know where the switch comes from so I can get a new one?

On first impressions looking at the one on the car it is a cheap and nasty piece of tat.

Not to sure on where it comes from originally. I was having an order up from Clever Trevor at the time and decided to order one of those too. Nice and easy to fit.

While removing mine, as it had stopped working, I noticed that the pedal only needs to move a little away from the switch for it to be active. It may be worth while sticking a washer behind it just to make sure it is actually bust and not just on the edge of the on/off stage.

I think it may be this, will stick a penny to the brake pedal and see if this makes a difference, this could be a famous blue tack fix
