I have found some on eBay that say they are OEM and are $92. I found one
on partsgeeks that's $98.

I had the headlight switch in my '95 124 sedan get wonky; one night it was very
stiff. It did turn on, but the detente feel was never right after that, so I
found a junkyard replacement. I wouldn't trust an aftermarket switch, and OE
from the dealer is a bit rich.

Peter,
Have you ever taken a valve apart? I'm wondering if that would be a good next
step? I don't want to destroy it, if I can't find an obvious problem, I'd like
to put the valve back in service.

Last night I installed a new 124 shifter bushing for the connection at the
gear shift lever. Not too fun but just possible without taking too much
apart.
The bushing at the transmission end is also gone and needs to be replaced,
looks REALLY tight and not possible in-situ.
