RE: missing switch
That is the rear window lockout switch to disable the rear window switches that are on the rear doors. You can't get just one switch as far as I know. It is one module that has the window, side mirror controls and the trunk switch. Lift the wood panel around the shifter and you will see that it is all one piece.

RE: missing switch
It is very easy to do yourself. It just snaps in place under the wood shift panel. It's a 5 minute job. You can find them on ebay or from Silver Star Recycling.
