VW Classic Parts Centre have them for €14.50. Burnt out headlight switches are a common problem!

Make sure you get the same part No. with the correct prefix, as there are at least two different types.

Is the wiring in the main part of the front loom?
Can't promise anything, but If not I may have one.
Will check Monday.

just checked the switch and block that neil sent me to try - its a nine pin B suffix on the block so no good. - what it the suffix on your switch - is it Q like mine? for your Finnish van i presume? Just curious as finding a q suffix switch is proving hard - have ordered a T from Aiden which will fit (new) but for interests sake would like to track down a Q one as well if poss.
Did you get the plastic housing ok? any good to you?
