        Try Pelican Parts. They should have one.

        I can't understand how it would be NLA from BMW as this is a common failing part.

        It's been a few years since I bought one, but it was in stock at my local BMW dealer.

        What kind of problem are you having trying to install it?

        It's pretty straightforward.

          It seems that the plunger is hitting the brake pedal arm before the assembly is properly seated.I got the part # from realoem.com.

            Did you get it resolved?

            I think on the older E30's, you could bend the mounting tab for the switch to "adjust" it.
