Some earlier vans have this problem.  I just advise folks to swap over thier
old switches like you have already done.  The switches coming with the MC is
a bonus anyway as other brands like FAG don't come with the switches and are
the same price.  If you really needed replacement switches I am sure that we
could work something out in a trade for the ones you recieved.  Let me know.

Thanks,

Subject: Master Cylinder Question

I have my dashboard out (replacing the fresh air fan) and am also doing the
master cylinder.  The one I had ordered from Van Again in NJ came with 2
brake light switches mounted in cylinder.  Problem is tho that my old
switches were 2 prong and these new ones are three prong.  I've switched the
switches :) and the old ones fit fine but I'd rather use the newer ones.
Can I just plug the two prong female connector onto two of the three males
in the new switches and ignore the third?  or did I get the wrong one from
Van Again??  Thanks for any help here.
