Rear lock-folding-roof assembly limiter switch replacement
Howdy fellow z350 owners,
due to unfortunate accident, I've damaged the limiter switch of the lock-folding-roof assembly (pictured bellow).
Since the entire assembly new is quite expensive, I'd like to avoid unnecessarily replacing everything and instead I'm looking for sourcing just the limiter switch.
Does anyone know where one can find suitable replacement?
Thank you very kindly in advance!

Thank you myork for pointing me in the right direction.
After some search I've resolved the producer to be Matsushita Electric and the part is an ABJ (BJ) Turquoise switch with wire leads bottom (simulated roller) leaf lever type and a 3mm mounting hole.
Trouble is that Matsushita has been acquired by Panasonic so the part numbers have change, thus for reference I'm attaching the Panasonic specifications:

So it comes down to one of these:

These switches are pretty easy to adjust/bend with needle nose pliers or hemostats to perform correctly. Have you checked for voltage when open/closed?

SPDT = single pole double throw = 1 input 2 output
SPST-NC = single pole single throw - normally closed = switch allows current flow until switch is depressed
SPST-NO = single pole single throw - normally open = current does not flow until switch is depressed
Decoding the OEM switch you need SPST-NC or ABJ362840

Thought I would give this a bump to see if a supplier was found for these? I had contacted a number of sellers on eBay who sold many variations of switches but have not been successful.
