Default How do you restore a Brake Light Switch ?

Evening; I have a great switch, solid and little to no rust. I disassembled
it as much as possible and sent the components out for plating. Ok, I have
the parts back from the plater, but I can't seem to make the assembly

conduct current as the rod is pulled and the spring is compressed. I am
assuming that this pull process should make the contacts come together
inside the housing and allow electrical current to flow from the source
on out to the brake lights? Mine "seems" completely back-wards from
this thought process.... I am assuming that this is an original, but could be wrong, so is it possible that I have some repro that works the opposite

of what an original should be? Anyone have a close up picture of what
theirs is like & what an original should look like. Latest project...
