Citroen CX Series 2 is the donor.

Pretty rare now, unfortunately. Even the Citroën specialists are struggling to find them.

They may also have been used on the BX.

As you mention a broken one, indicates you are willing to dabble.

I have noticed a similarity between our switch and a diahatsu one. Might be worth a play.

I've been delving around the lower portions of the net.

I think a Peugeot 306 "Phase 1" switch (also used on 106 and 405) might be pressed into service or stripped for parts.

It has 8 pins rather than 7, but the 8th looks like it's for illumination so could be ignored.

It's from the right manufacturing group and the overall package looks very similar, apart from the shape of the buttons.
