Default 8-way Power Seat Lumbar Switch Pins

I have a 2001 Boxster 2.7 with the 8-way power seats and three-position memory. I have one issue where the forward/backward function doesn't work and another where one of the lumbar controls is dead. Pulling the switch plate apart reveals the reason for the latter— one of the microswitches is missing its actuator pin. This is a tiny ball-topped square plastic column with a fork cut into the base. I cannot find these anywhere. As you can see in the pic, the ball on the top is about the same size as a map pin, but I have no way of securing that into the switch slot. Searching 43 AO online has not been successful. If anyone has any suggestions where such a pin or a cheap otherwise non-functioning switch could be procured, I'm all ears. I already tried Audi and Volkswagen switches at the junkyard, but those use a different mechanism.


The yellow dot is the map pin I thought could work.
