Hi Neil
Just seen this on eBay if you’re interested.
Regards Ken

You might find if the switch is not exactly the same the internal parts maybe
Oddjob:
Avoid avoid avoid. No light switches in that switch.
Bryanj:
Correct Ken, i didnt look close just googled the part number from cms, it was stupid o'clock in my defense, appologies to op
Ken4004:
No Problem Bryanj
I just thought that even if the assembly was not exactly the same the internal might be , big companies like Honda will also try and use existing designs instead of re inventing new parts every time to keep design and production costs down.
I did have slot of issues with my switches when I rebuilt my bike but managed to re fettle everything and now it’s working well.
These switches when exposed to the elements over long periods of time just disintegrate into a pile of rust, I actually totally retired my bike because every time I fixed one thing something else went wrong so I decided to rebuild the whole wiring loom.
During this adventure I found lots of corrosion throughout the loom with lots of wire nearly corroded through so well work doing, sorry waffling on too much.
