Looks like maybe they gave you the wrong switch!----They show 3, I feel sure, one of 'em is you!

Just looking at the 3 parts, I really see no way to successfully modify the pipe threaded one, to work as you describe yours requires.

Might try a different parts store too!

Sometimes that awaiting text message, really messes up their train of thought!
