Default If you can wait a week.......
I will let you have my spare for $175, free shipping. I am having the tranny changed, I may not need it. Bought used for my 98Q, switch in good working condition. Also have a cruise control combination switch for grabs.

Are you sure $450 isn't the price installed? I paid $195 through local indy repair shop.

That sounds like a "used" price. Dealer is 450 and ECS Tuning is 370.

Most definitely not used. May or may not be OEM, though. Is the ECS part OEM?

Default Try a ZF distributor
It may be a ZF part--their on line parts manual for the 5HP24A would show it if so. Just bought the solenoid wiring harness inside the tranny from a ZF dist. for less than half Clair's price, which itself is slightly discounted.
