Unhappy BJ Foglight switch

Have a bit of an issue with the foglight switch, unplugged and removed it no problem but as I was pushing it out the thing has come apart! I think I have all the parts in the right place, however I have a small ball bearing lose. Anyone have any diagrams or knowledge that could help? (Plugging in the switch as is, resulted in a lose connection to the fog lights).

I doubt much people have actually taken the switch apart... you're better off just replacing the switch with another

Dammit, I was hoping to avoid doing that. Thanks anyway!

OK, so i seem to have solved the problem. Next question is what sort of globe goes in the switch and does it come out of the small grey base (for lack of a better term)?
Or do i buy the base/globe together?

Been to Jaycar and Auotbarn and both don't have the correct globe. Mazda will be my next stop.
