"Ktype," FYI: the Ebay-link I suggested was to a UK source. They are advertising the horn/dip switch I think you are trying to source.

Hello Richard have not spotted your message - and mine to you is most likely lost in spam too |

The ones shown are both late versions, but they will work. The early version has a somewhat larger diameter knob. (But you likely knew that).

I do have these two doing nothing. They are here, not there but in the absence of better offers.....
One does have the early, large knob but is a little frayed around the edges. Ideal if you want a nice period replacement for an original car

This is an early form of horn dip switch. The button actually overhangs the screw heads making them slightly awkward to reach with a screwdriver.

I believe these were used on models with a 'one headlamp out' dipping system such as this -
