Mezz: I need another set for back u (and also broke one bulb on installation). You still have another 2 switches/4 bulbs available? Will post payment on Ebay (give me place to send, again) when I get your reply. And once again, thanks for your efforts! Aron:thumbsup:

I got the switches and bulbs today. I installed them and it worked like a charm. That is very cool. I've known others that have spent a lot of money replacing the complete assembly only to have the switches burn out again.

 

Thanks, again. This was a great deal.:biggrin:

Cool, got ur paypal. I'll try to get them out tomorrow.

 

Shipping had been pegged at $2.50 for a Long time but I'm finally breaking down and bumping it up to $3.00.

I successfully lobbied the original manufacturer of dome light switches to re-manufacture some switches for me. I ordered a couple of hundred and they just showed up today. $8 a pair plus shipping ($2.50).

 

It's probably just my cars they broke on, right? :)

 

I'll post a picture tomorrow night.

 

7/28/11 update - Acting on a tip from another W-bodier I picked up some LED bulbs that fit right into the original housing. These eliminate the heat buildup that causes the switches to go bad. I can provide a set of 4 for $12.

 

I would like a set of switches and bulbs if still available. Thanks

The original bulbs burn very hot which causes heat to build up and eventually the plastic in the switches fuses together. Someone on the forum tipped me off to the LED conversion bulbs which don't generate nearly as much heat. If your switches still work and you haven't done it already I'd suggest getting a set of LED bulbs.
