Early Series Land-Rovers also used the same concept, probably until about
'67. I don't know if the switch is the same but you may want to check with
Rovers North or British Pacific.

Well, I took the path of least resistance and just bought the replacement
switch. I tucked in some paper towels around it, and leaned a 24" length of
4x6 on the pedal to provide slight positive pressure. Hardly lost any fluid,
doesn't seem to have introduced any air.

Addressing some of the other comments, I have not installed halogen bulbs,
and I have always used Castrol LMA brake fluid, exclusively. So I am pretty
much convinced the switches just have poor life expectancy.
