Default Ignition switch for lights????

What do you guys think of using aftermarket push-pull ignition switch as light switch? These switches are for many older IH, Farmall and Cub tractors. It looks very much like the old light switches on narrow frames!

I'd run it. I couldnt see a amp rating but appears to be basically the same thing as a cub cadet light switch. I'm sure it could handle a few small bulbs

Reliable and aftermarket in the same sentence worries me...
They are the same switch, just the knob if different.

Call me El Cheapo, but 36 bucks (after shipping) strikes me as a tad high for a simple light switch.

I dont pay 119$. I got locked in at 69$ I placed 70 orders so far this year that all shipped free. I also get amazon prime music and streaming video. Theres some other perks as well. You can buy without prime and pay shipping just like you would from ebay. Obviously if you dont use amazon much it might not pay to get prime. But I think there is still a savings without prime on many products. I do most my xmas shopping, parts for shop, other stuff for house, I bought my sons school supplies etc. Without leaving the house! Bonus

I see the price advertised is 12.99 a month or 119$ . My mistake. I paid 89$ upfront for the year so I got a discount for not paying monthly. I see now if you do the 12.99$ month there is no contract cancel anytime. So if you had a bunch of stuff to buy in a month you could activate it, shop, and only pay $12.99 for the month then cancel. I get most stuff next day with prime even tho they only guarantee 2 day. Most is shipped faster.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
