.
Yes
Easy enough to do?
Does the steering wheel need to come off? I’ve seen a video which looks like it was done without removing it.
Shroud off and it's on the opposite side to the key. Dead easy.

Looking at prices and where to buy. Seen OEM at around £70, but also seen eBay ones at £12…..any recommendations?

Recognise some names there. Do they sell switches, or just have experience in swapping them out?

All forum members who have broken cars and may have the parts you need. I've checked and currently I don't, sorry.
