I've just noticed a really stupid feature of the Kufatec loom. 
The operating button (mine is round, not square as in the photo) has a nut and spring washer for securing it from behind (through a mounting hole), already fitted. Saves them getting lost presumably.
But it is of course impossible to fit that way without cutting the cable to the switch, the button has to be inserted from the front!  So why didn't they put a small connector in that (2-wire) part of the loom, small enough to feed through a mounting hole and to slip the nut/washer over. Or provide a fixing that you attach and tighten from the button face side? So much for German attention to detail! 
As it happens I'm using a different switch so it's not an issue for me as I need to cut that wiring anyway.
