Default Clutch interlock switch

My car has been having problems starting, and I've pretty much nailed it down as the clutch interlock switch (sometimes when it won't start if I hold the key in and pump the clutch it fires). I'd like to replace it myself, but I don't know how to get at the switch or exactly what it entails. Is this an easy job? and where is the best place to get detailed instructions on how to replace it? I bought a Haynes manual, but it seems pretty worthless.

You need a bentley manual. Most descriptive and accurate when it comes to our cars.

Actually, I figured out where the switch is with some good old fashioned guess and check. I pulled off the driver's side knee bolster and started poking around, and I think I know the faulty switch. I just don't know what it is called and how to order one. It's not the clutch pedal position (CPP) switch, that one does the cruise control and some function with the computer, but the actual start-up switch is opposite the CPP, so when the pedal is depressed, the CPP plunger extends, and this one (the one I need) gets depressed. If you know what it is, or anyone does, please help...
