Default Auxillary toggle switch

If anyone out there has a broken aux. toggle switch that mounts on the rear of the fork cover, HD here wanted 51 bucks for it. Boy are they proud of it. I bought an industrial grade spdt momentary switch and silicone boot at Grainger's for 12 bucks. I went momentary because I'm using it for the garage door opener. You can get standards for a couple bucks cheaper. If you just need the silicone boot with brass nut attached it is about 6 bucks. Just thought I'd throw this out for anyone looking for one. You can get a stationary sw. at the Shack for 3 bucks. It is not industrial grade but will work.

Yeah -- but it doesn't have HD on it.
