Nissan in Dubai wanted to replace the entire brake pedal assembly!! Imagine the cost of that for a few rubber caps!
Fortunately my garage managed to source the caps from elsewhere and for a few bucks all is good. Brake light goes out again and CC works perfectly.
I am guessing when you buy switch in US it comes with cap?
Hope this helps someone in future.
Cheers

Nice easy fix after the labor of chasing down the issue. Look at it this way the rubber caps lasted longer than steering wheel lock, 6mt clutch system, fuel hats, galley gaskets (in most cases) and rear end bushings!!!
