I am looking for a OEM looking two pole switch that will fit next to the ASC switch by the U.S. drivers side left knee panel for a project. It can be a rocker type or a push on/off type switch. I prefer non Illuminated. Black interior. Simply an on/off switch. I thought about a E30 Fog light switch, but it's too wide. OK with non-BMW as long as it looks and sized close. I'm searching automotive online suppliers as well. Thanks much!  __________________

Cool. I had my mitts full of stuff Sunday at Pick and Pull and didn't really check out the E36's so well. __________________

OOooohhh, this switch. Ya, it will work. I was looking for a switch like the ASC switch for size and shape. I'll pull one in the next few days. Thanks again! __________________
