Not sure, what your looking for, but if it's a hood pin switch, you probably can find it in a auto hardware store, I had to buy one, and I bought one fron GRANDAUTO or KREGANS auto store,  is this for your alarm?  JOEL

Ya, its for a new Baretta alarm, I have a jeep so I need one for my tailgate and my hood, I might put a Rader sensor under the hood sense I am reading everywere that all you have to do is open the hood slowly and hold the switch down.

It's a Jeep Wrangler 2000

Mount the hood switch at the back of the hood.  (close to windshield)  Not likely someone would be able to find it easily while peeking through the opening. If set right they will set off the alarm before they will be able to see it.

The switch I found, by accident, and use for all of my pin needs is under Auto Zone's listing as a door pin switch(possibly dome light switch) for a 1988 Chrystler LeBaron. Its easy to use and comes threaded. No more that $2. They usually stock only one or two of these though.
