I did mine with it off as I was replacing the clutch but have heard it can be done without taking the box off if you've got ramp excess iyptll be easier, defo worth replacing if gone as it controls your Avcs

(But, just incase it don't work and you done all that work, May aswell fit a new one incase and be done with it).
Yes you can fit on drive etc, I did mine on drive like a boss lol.
It's located right on top of the box in the tunnel and there's no way of getting to it without dropping box.
I just lowered the box by removing all mounts associated with it supported by a jack, enough to climb under the back of box near linkage area to squeeze my hand in to fit, bit of a bummer job to do but doable and I'm no pro, just like doing things on my own car myself.
Picture below just for reference exactly where switch is as you can get reverse switch mixed up.

I'd personally stay away from any garage that tells you that kind of advice it's like putting a second hand clutch in after all the hard work and effort as bustamoves has said above get new bud

In my opinion if it's not 100% right it's 110% wrong bro... I always replace with new genuine parts but that's just me I do it right the first time round no messing or fookary

It's already got a washer fitted, but they say fit a thinner washer as the nipple of switch is plastic and will get worn over time so fitting a thinner washer will set it further down into the box.
