Default Drivers window switch replacement cunning plan (cheap)

The actual rocker switch drivers window has come adrift but I see that replacement new is £130 or so, used £70. However my cunning plan is to buy a rear window switch - far cheaper - and extract rocker bit over as I'm sure they must be the same. Any problems?

If you want to cover postage and make a donation to https://www.achingarms.co.uk/ I'll send you a rear offside switch.

PM me if interested

Yep done. I just switched the passenger switch to the drivers so I can use the car till the eBay one comes.

I shall add this to the extremely few genuine 10 minute jobs one can do on the R75.
