In addition to doing that my switch will chatter on and off with road vibration...I know because I have a relay installed between the switch and the lights and I can hear it chatter when I drive, and I can give the pedal a short hard poke and the chattering will stop.... perhaps I should hit up a junkyard with classics grab a few NOS switches and see if those help.
