I’ll be honest if you can’t find one, a 92 Dakota one is avail and you could get a pigtail for it and retro fit it. I think this is the same switch for the square Dodge trucks. Also if you would like you could pull the headlamp circuit out of the switch and put them thru some relays and the marker lamps which is nice if you pull a trailer as you take the load off the switch and it only works the relays.

Bad news, so far, there never was any aftermarket on this switch ever.....
No Standard, No Borg Warner, No Kem, No Wells, No Ampco, No Tungsten, No Vulcan, Nobody.....

It was a MOPAR dealer item, exclusively.... I have a couple people to call on Monday.... I will let you know....
(Cross your fingers !!!)..... yours, Craig.....
