Im not sure about a cheap alternative, But I will say this, its one of the few true 100% perfect NOS parts in the sealed box ive ever gotten. And for a change I wasnt upset with crazy franks people.
It looks to me the prices vary a good bit for this part number you listed but I checked with fmmp and I was told it would be as nice as the one in the pic on ebay and it is.
The 76-77 switch is a true 3 speed with the push detent? for the wiper spray. And it rotates.
The 78 up switch for the vara speed is a left to right slider then two clicks for high/low?
