Alternatives to Sierra column switches

I have the old Sierra steering column stalks from a donor car but they're a bit old and temperamental. I wondered if there are any direct replacements available or whether the best option is new ones from ebay.

Ford Transit switches look similar - do these fit?
A few years ago someone sold replacements with nice turned aluminium ends - are these still available?


Thanks

I think it really depend on whether or not the multi plug connectors would fit or would they need to be reworded ? Most Ford switches might fit but later cars probably need relays in the circuits as they may not be able to cope with things like headlamp or wiper loads?

The aluminium stalks just screw into the Sierra switch bodies after cutting original arms off. Look on the Zero site they sell them, the switches also.

Not sure if these are any good for you, but they just popped up on CBS. May require some re-wiring.

If disfunction is a function, then I must be some kind of genius.
