You can purchase that pressure switch at any auto parts store, just make sure it has the same connections.
Some have round and some are the spade.
They are all 1/8 pipe thread.

It's nothing special, just a generic 1/8 NPT brake light switch

Just be careful of the old Lucas switches. They have two positions. Flicker and off

I like the pressure switches with the banjo fitting that goes right on the master cylinder .
