Try Mazmart at 770-455-4848. Ask for Paul. Replace both the switch & harness at the same time.

i used to get headlight switches out of vehicles that were used in fire practices. I know for a fact that they are pretty pricey, no matter what vehicle you are looking at. I could easily get 150-200 bucks off one of them in good condition. Seeing that the mazda headlight switch is 300 is pretty common, price probably won't fluctuate too much from one place to the next.

ship them your old switch and they'll rebuild it. They do headlight switches, wiper switches, idiot light cluster, guages. They're great and the owner (guy who does all the work) is a genious about Rx-7s, you could ask him anything about a 2nd gen.

I can vouch for this...I bought a headlight and a wiper switch off Icemark. He is a RX-7 guru.
