Jimmy, Quit looking for Goodrich and look at electronics parts suppliers. I'm not sure what that switch is for sure (I'd have to look inside my MatchBro) but I'm sure any good parts store would have it or be able to get it. If you have any trouble email me and I'll do some snooping around for you. Whip

| That's simply a double pole double throw (DPDT) switch. Any parts store should have it, including Radio Shack. |

There should be a Maplins somewhere near you - they will have what you need.
