The Chinese repop headlight switches are JUNK. I went through 3, they kept burning out internally.

Then I bought one, yes, one, early 6 volt Bug headlight switch at a swap meet. It works and works VERY well. Old, durable, heavy brass inside. And the best thing is with a 12 volt system, you are are running HALF the designed current through it. So it should last twice as long, maybe?

If you have flash to pass, that won't work anymore without some extra relay gymnastics. That is the only caveat to using this switch.

I have no idea if this new one is any good, but mine looks like this one:
