Default Dome light microswitch broken

Former Piloteer fanatic here. Been a LONG time since I've been on here.

Hoping some can help me out. Driver's side dome light (in overhead console) quit working. New bulb. No luck. I should have taken pictures with it removed, but the mrs. had to leave so I quickly just shot the panel.



So, I removed the assembly and discovered the microswitch was bad. As you can see below, the switch has three holes which accept 3 prongs. It slides right in/out and is not soldered.



I actually swapped the passenger-side switch in and sure enough, it worked.

So.....anyone got a panel that is dead or otherwise know where I can find a switch? I have homelink, but it may not matter. I suspect the switches are the same.

Its worth taking the switch to the deal to see if that part is available alone-If I know Honda, the same part is used on many different Honda models.

Like you all I see in parts listings is replacement of the entire module.

Some people did swap out the module for the version with the conversation mirror so there is hope you might "get lucky"

Yeah, I realized that after I posted. I didn't really mean to put it here in classifieds, but couldn't figure out how to kill a post.

Anyway, I found an exact replacement (one on the right): SPED2 Series - Products Line

Various electronic places have them. I paid less than 2 bucks! Score!!
