Default 1931 Stop light switch?

Where can I get a GOOD, US made, stop light switch? Taiwan/China/ Junktique is not a option.

Thanks

A & L has always made very good ones, with a proper bushing. Available through the major vendors.

Called ALL vendors, none in stock, been out for months, same story, A&L is backed up/short handed, don't know when we will get some more.

We do have the foreign made however.

The ones made by A&L are available from Bratton's. They are excellent quality. You may notice that in Bratton's catalog he offers two 30-31 brake light switches. The one for about $50 is made by A&L, the one for about $6 is made in China and will short out a half a block from your house after you install it.

Tom, with respect, I spoke to a lady at Bratton's yesterday, even gave her the part number. She replied, none in stock, been out for quite awhile, don't know when we will get more. I also told her, it wasn't saying OUT OF STOCK on the website, she then replied, Yeah.

I have one coming now, thanks for ALL who replied.
