Mercedes 1617 Gearbox: (713.701 - G3/60-5/7.5)

Good day,

I need assistance with sourcing of an alternative part for my reverse light switch on the gearbox. MB South Africa says its discontinued. It is part number 20 with part number A0005457909.
If anyone of you know of a possible aftermarket replacement, please share info. Thanx

Ebay UK has loads of them if that helps.

Just search on the part number, looks like they are made by Hella

Thank you, I ordered one and will hopefully arrive early July. Will give feedback then.

So my new sensor arrived all the way from Slovenia. Part number differs even though I ordered it on the original part - looks exactly the same though so I belief it will work.
