Driver's Door Switch

Doesn't work reliably. I've sprayed contact cleaner down the shaft and actuated it dozens of times and it hasn't really helped. I checked on the price of this part and wow - $80 - $120! I would like my foot well lights to come on when I open the door but not at that cost.

The switch is riveted together. Has anyone successfully disassembled and reassembled one of these?

Thanks, Andy

Never had that switch apart. As you are probably aware it does several things. In my car it automatically releases the seat back locking mechanism (SLC) and aside from activating the courtesy lights, it also allows the window switches to operate (no key in ignition) which door closed.
