Clutch Switch

Hi everyone.
I have an issue with the clutch switch. I know this because I have done my research and found out that the symptoms I am experiencing are caused by this pesky little fellow.
My question here is, which switch is faulty? is it the lower one or the one that sits higher?
I am gathering that the problem is the lower one, but I would like somebody do chime in for confirmation (BTW, 93 Touring RX-7).
Thank you,
Giovanni

Depress the pedals, and see which switch pops out properly. The one that doesn't pop out is the one that needs to be repaired.

Done

Thank you Adam,
the link was very helpful. Easy job regardless, but a couple of pictures just make you feel you know exactly what you're looking for.
I put a pen spring in and -like many said- worked like a charm.
I put everything back together, I'll drive the car tomorrow, but it's all cleaned up, the plastic stick comes all the way out (didn't pretty much at all before), so it should be perfect.
