    WTB: late (80-83) defroster switch

    I need a post facelift switch (80-83) that lights up when it is on.

    Anyone has a used defroster switch in good condition for sale? Mine broke and is not repairable as the little metal arm inside broke, so it always stays on.

    Thanks,
    Max

    Thanks, but that is the 77-79 switch. I need 61311369289. Looks like I can get a new one for about $100, but I wanted to see if I can find a used one cheaper.

    I may have one that I pulled from a parts car. I’ll dig later today.

    Cool

    Strange, I'm using bmw 61311356623 1975-on and works and fits just right--has a green button on front and lights up when in use. From the pictures they look identical. the only difference I see is 623 has green button and 289 has black button, quite a jump in price for a colored button and possible design feature showing thru black button. From the pictures they are exactly identical on the male spade terminals, housing ect except the color of the buttons......

    834 is 2x in price, have fun with the dough you saved.

    Hmm, I was wondering what the difference is... Mine in the car is 834 clearly.
