Reverse Lamp Switch

Hi all,

I recently put a newly rebuilt transmission into my Midget, and upon transferring the reverse lamp switch from the old to the new, I snapped the bolt. I've since ordered two from Moss ( part #542-410 and #542-400 ) that were much too small for the allotment in the transmission. Both were described to fit my 1275 '74 but obviously didn't.

I'm not 100% sure that my rebuilt transmission was out of a '74, but the bolt fits in both transmissions...and the original was indeed a '74.

I didn't get much help from Moss, so I was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction of something that'll fit. Or better yet, if anyone here has one they'd sell me.

Thanks!
