Any one got a spare stalk the "clicks" that I could try... or buy?

The chances of repairing pull/pull or push/push latching switched is remote, the mechanisms are tiny and delicate.... if you open it up, very small bits will spring out and you have to find out where they came from...... if the click is missing, and if you want to have a go... just make sure you have a plan "B". Below is what I think you are looking for, and it is from BIG_MVS`s for sale bits.... that assuming you have checked turbodogs earth..... but I feel that the missing click is the clue here. :wink:

As JC says don't even attempt to take it apart .I've done it a few times with little success .......
More than likely it is not serviceable as the mechanism is most probably worn .I may have one but think I swapped the last one into JV's new car .

OK all. I got a SH unit and it works.
There are 2 types of unit. There is a 6 spade connector block on the wiring loom. On the Stalk unit, some cars have 5 spades and some 6. Mine was 5 and a 6 spade unit, kindly donated by Big MVS did not work, so being returned.
I got a 5 spade one of an ebay contact, it is from a R25 MK-I and it works a treat.
He is an ex-Renault mechanic, just selling off all his bits n pieces now that he is no longer working full time. Call Logan on 07831 580939 or ebay ID recycledtoyou. he seemed to know what he was talking about, but no GTA or T2 parts.
