Default Why i hate the old headlight switch!

So here's the scenario, the last few weeks here the temps have been in the teens or lower. My lovely '96 A4 2.8q's headlight switch has been going out, which they are famous for. So i have to hold the flash brights on until the switch warms up and finally turns the headlights on. Well tonight i was driving my gf home and i was getting pissed off with the damn switch so i forcefully pushed it up past on and it broke off. So here's my question, i already need a new headlight switch, but does the switch come with the arm that sticks out of the wheel or is that a seperate piece? Also does anyone know where i could order that piece from and the part number? I'd really appreciate some help, i've searched and found that this happens alot (minus the anger breaking problem). Thanks

Default My

parts source shows that as an assembly. I don't show a seperate part for the parking vs headlight portion.
