I can't find a part anywhere, either in parts stores or internet part suppliers.
I need the passenger's side power window/door lock combination switch.
It's 2 separate switches in the arm rest, but both switches are in one unit.

It's a 1993 Ford Thunderbird LX, 5.0.

Looks like this on top...

That's from eBay, and I'm not stupid enough to pay $48 for a used switch with the plugs cut off and a light blue arm rest that I don't want.
That's the only one I've ever found, so I need your help.
 
Have you tried any salvage yards in your area? I used to have to do that for some things (passenger-side mirror) on my 1983 Heritage Coupe 5.0. You might also see if they used in anything like the Crown Vic?
 
Do you have a part number? Does the eBay description give a part number?

You might try searching for a switch from a mustang of the same year, it would be more popular and if you're lucky they shared that switch.


From what I'm seeing you might want to buy the one on eBay, prices are high on electrical parts! Or try to replace just the buttons?

The part is specific to 90-93 Tbirds and Mercury Cougars. NO OTHER year or car.
There's a very organized yard near here, but none of those years are available.
The current switch is not just worn, but was crushed when the door was apart to replace the window motor. (Just can't get good help)
 
i did for almost 20 years . i do international and fire truck parts now.
we have a ford dealer also that i can check
I do not believe it does not come complete.the switches should be separate the gray connecter is another part. did the switches get crushed or the gray connector? there should be part numbers on the switches and the gray connector. take those numbers down and cross them over
should look something like this
not sure what yours will say but this is a example
window switch should be like fosb-14529-aa
lock switch fosb-14028-aa
gray connector d9ab-14489-aa
you get the idea
when you cross them over they maybe obsolete.
get the part numbers from the dealer if so and call green sales
they buy all old obsolete parts from dealers
