Most, including myself who rebuild them are now charging for the service.
Terry K has most of the hard to find parts needed to rebuild or replace the switch.
I only rebuild 2.1 bodies.
I charge $275 + core $75�+ shipping.
This is with a new switch and cover.
I think Terry and Frank are around the same price.
