You didn't say what kind of vehicle it was, but have you called the 
various junk yards?

If it's a popular car, have you consulted online enthusiast forums?

Does the location of the switch lend itself to retrofitting a generic 
pressure switch?  You're talking about the thing that turns on the brake 
lights & turns off the cruise when you depress the brake pedal, right?
