TR2/3/3A Push switch for washer fluid pump

Recently installed a electric washer pump under the dash with the traditional Tudor bottle in the engine compartment. Did it such a way that it is not visible. Now I'm looking for a momentary switch that when pushed it engages and turns off when released. Like a TR3 starter switch. I do want to keep it looking proper with a traditional Lucas black knob too. Been searching the net and eBay with no luck. Any suggestions?

I converted the pump washers on the 4A to electric operation. I used a heater switch (on/off) with the original washer pump knob. You can start the washers up and get a bit of water on the screen before you start the wipers. Rimmers list a single speed wiper switch for the 3A which could do the trick.

When I have the Navigator/Speed Limiter with me, I find that I have automatic washers AND wipers while I concentrate on steering. She has a strong self preservation instinct.

Why not use one of those?
