Default Break light switch

Hi
Im hunting a break light switch that is attached to the top of the break pedal on my 1993 mk5 rs2000.
Iv been told mine is setup with 4 wired plug in amd not just 2 wires. My local fords no longer do this part. Has anyone got one going or know when i can getone? Iv been told its different to a standard one.

the brake light switch only makes a circuit so why would it need 4 wires?

i'm sure you can fix it
