I don't know where you're coming from, but a $72.50 repair for a switch pack is RIDICULOUS! Ditto for the $370 switch replacement. What your mechanic HAS done and is trying to stick you for is "in line" with what Meineke Muffler in Omaha, NE-the "We Do IT All" people-tried to on me with an $800 muffler repair (and YES, I can prove it cause I have their quotation...). My advice...do as I did and make your mechanic SWEAR that the quote s/he gave you will be valid next week! AND either COUGH UP the payment or get motivated to DIY! BTW In the past few times I was at a yard I ran across several of the switch packs tossed aside that probably have a decade of good use in them...they are out there AND THEY ARE NOT $370!!!
