Not fiber but rather a "pressboard" which time and exposure to water is likely "disintegrated." I have a couple of switches with the same delamination.

A "recreation" of the component in plastic or lexan may be your only option. This actually would be a good project for 3D printing, but it would be done best using the original manufacturer drawings (these may not be FORD drawings.)

And the repop switches are soo poor, they're almost not worth talking about. Both switches AND the round "switch base" attached to the harness.
