Hi Scott

I dug up the photos. The first is the original switch, the second, the replacement.

You can see that the replacement case is just a bit taller -- I'm told this is the smallest case currently available. The cap tube on the new one is curved just as far as I was brave enough to test it. The original had some pretty tiny loops behind the console, a kink where the passenger floor board had contacted it, and a nasty kink near the evaporator. I'm really surprised it lasted so long.

One other instruction I received was to pull the white plastic sheath off the old cap tube and slide it over the new one. This was the most difficult part of the job. I did cut out the most kinked parts of the white sheath, to make this more possible
