5 prong power window switch

For some reason, someone replaced the stock power window switches in my car with 5 prong ones...Well one of them died the other day and I was hoping someone here would know where i could find another one of these, or maybe a way to wire a 4 prong switch to it. it really sucks driving around with one window and no AC.

Thanks

anybody ever seen one of these? They look similar to the stock ones, except the button is flatter and the little window on it glows in the dark kinda

Is it wired into the stock harness connector or is it hack-n-spliced?

its definitely a hack job, but I would think there's gotta be a way to wire back a normal switch to it. I figure you need power, ground and maybe two wires to the window motor, one for up one for down maybe...any ideas for which one is which on the switch? Cause I figure those wires have to be there for the other switches, just a bunch of extra garbage too...

thanks
