side mirrors switch
 
Anyone know where I could find a replacement switch for my power side mirrors? I have a 1982 RX7-GX (Canadian edition). I believe the GX is equivalent to the GSL-SE. The car is loaded with all the options. My switch started smoking one day and ever since the switch does not work. Looks like i'm going to need a new one.
Any help would be wonderful.

I think I have one laying around... you can have it... just pay for shipping. I'll check in the garage tonight and let you know.

Before you replace it, though, you might want to figure out why the current one smoked out.

You could have a short somewhere external to the switch, that will fry the new one when connected.

I was drilling a hole and I believe I drilled right into the switch. I will remove the switch and take a look.
It doesn't work, that much I know. damn. I've owned this 1982 RX7 GX (Canadian edition) since brand spanking new. It is my 'baby'.
I'm going to e changing the clutch soon. I put a Centerforce II clutch kit in it about 25 years ago. It's finally showing signs of slipping. Over-reving on accelerator demand. Oh well. I do baby it so the clutch lasted quite long - I think. Any recommendations for a Clutch Kit?
Thanks guys.
Oh, "81WideMariah" if you have the switch I'll certainly take it off your hands. I see you're in Orlando and I'm in Winnipeg, Manitoba-Canada. Shipping by Post can't be too bad. I'll pay it of course. Thanks.
