Default Does anyone have a bad passender side power seat switch?

I am missing the fore/aft/height adjustment seat switch ****. I am being told that the **** isn't sold separately. It only comes with the switch assembly. Has anyone replaced the seat switch and still have the ****. I have tried a couple of dismantlers but I guess they typically don't keep bad switches and don't want to sell the ***** from a good switch.

I gotta wonder if there is any options for making a mold out of the drivers side **** to get you out of the delima. There's so much stuff online now of days for doing it yourself its amazing.

Now you got my thoughts spinning. As an engineer, you would think that I could find a way.

Re-awakening this thread in several places.
Anyone ever come up with the $10 solution for replacing this ****?

Otherwise, it's back to the $110 used switch and plate replacement, or the $500+ dealer switch/plate.

Bumping this as I have the same issue. Looking at a couple eBay options.

1.) $250 for the complete switch

2.) $150 or Best Offer for a switch without the lumbar button.

Does anyone know if the control for the lumbar portion can be swapped over? I have lumbar in my seats and I'm pretty sure could swap that control out, but I can't find any info if it is indeed possible or not. Would be nice to save the $100.

Just an FYI and possible warning:

I responded to the poster above for a replacement piece, and was sent a 3d printed part that arrived broken. Was told a replacement would be sent out, but after a month it appears he has ghosted me. I'm only out about $50 but wanted to give a heads up to the community.

Don't know if it was a scam or what, but just be warned.
