Clutch switch

Could someone take a pic of how the clutch switch is engaged when clutch pedal is depressed? The one that's located on the firewall. When I depress clutch it does not engage switch, I have to crawl under pedal and push by hand.

Thanks

Sorry don’t have a picture ready. Sounds like the little rubber piece that fits in a hole on the clutch pedal is broken and missing. They get brittle with age and fall out. Most auto part stores have that part in stock, I think Honda ones fit. Mazda oem ones are inexpensive too.
