Hello Paul,

I'm not familiar with your car but I assume that rather than a hydraulic pressure switch, the brake light switch is actuated by the brake pedal?

If that is the case I would suggest that you look at industrial limit switches. They come in a variety of sizes and mounting options.
One website that keeps a large variety is RS-Components https://uk.rs-online.com. Just ensure the correct configuration of the contact if you see one that seems to be suitable. Either a change over configuration or a normally closed configuration.
