Whilst at the Renault dealers the other day asking about Certificate of Conformity to export Bea to France, I also asked re the availability of the above switch. Yes, it is still available from Renault, they would have to get it from France in about 5 days and would cost £22.something inc VAT.
Humm I thought, I'll pass on that. Phoned up a local motor factor, yes the man says, we can do that, have 3 in stock, they are - wait for it - £2.36 plus Vat each. Like twenty quid cheaper! So that was a no-brainer.
Re the Cert of Conformity, no problems, took the car to the dealer (to prove it existed and was all hunky dory), he filled in a form, took copies of my driving licence and the log book to fax to Renault, and apparently the certificate will be with me in a few days and cost nothing.
