Hasn't been available GM for quite some time. NOS are difficult to come by. Used? Most I would think might consider the by-pass of it. The OE # for it 14047136 if you'd like to search for one. The switch is an '84 - '86 exclusive.

Bypass it. Did it on my 94' and glad I did. Lets you start thr car in neutral without being in the car. This is great for when you are working on the car and need to start it real quick to check something.
