I just picked these two up on eBay to compare the quality and posted the results on my site (http://tr6.danielsonfamily.org/AltBrakeSwitch.htm) Both appear to be of excellent quality with all metal construction except for the plastic insulator at the connection end. They're also easy to install and infinitely adjustable. No need to bend the mounting tab with these guys.

If you want to give a shot at repairing the original switch here's how I did that and it lasted for about a year (http://tr6.danielsonfamily.org/BrakeSwitch.htm)

Does anyone have a good original round brake light switch for a TR6 they would
be willing to part with?
I got one of the current square Lucas switches and it fell apart installing
it.  The round one lasted for 37 years.
Thanks
