Henry, I think I have one. I'll check in a few hours when I get back home.

You can buy them from Ron Francis as well.

Also posted on the other forum: ACDelco D1588 is the equivalent. If you get the actual ACDelco branded switch it seems to be better quality that the one FFR sells. Pretty widely available, and only a little over $20 on Amazon.

This is just an FYI to all of you building now and those interested in building. I can not speak directly towards the Factory Five/Ron Francis switch however, I recently was doing some wiring and had the pleasure of working with a Painless headlight switch. The parking light function of the switch was D.O.A. So I carefully took the switch apart and found that a piece of the plastic had broken off inside and eventually bent the contact for the parking lights. I repaired it and reassembled the switch, tested it and confirmed it all worked. While installing it in the car the plastic outer housing of the switch proceeded to crumble in my hands. After seeing the price for the same crappy switch online, I decided to go with a stock replacement switch from an online supplier (I chose a switch for a late model Mustang) For less than $20 I got a replacement switch and the wiring connector for the switch and the quality of the switch far exceeds that of the Painless switch. The GM switch listed in an above post is probably a much better quality of switch much like the one I used.
