Thanks! I might actually have a brake switch in one of my buckets of bits and pieces I got from hanno a few years back, or elsewhere. I find all sorts of little gems I didn't know I had. What color is the interior of the 300E in Elkton, just out of curiosity? I broke the third brake light housing while inspecting it, plus mine has always had a "melted" spot ... so if it's palomino maybe I'll grab it.
