Default Antenna switch addition?

Just replaced the antenna mast for the 3rd time. They seem to go out every 4 to 5 years. My son never actually listen to the radio- just CDs or MP3s, but of course it goes up and down very time the car is started, so I'm thinking that a switch I saw on a a volvo "switch cluster" might be the ticket.
What model should I look for at the boneyard (or a part number if I have to visit Ye Olde Volvo Dealer) and how do I wire the sucker in.
Thanks

I added one in our S70, used a fog light switch.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

I'll try and find a genuine antenna switch, because
a) I'm just that kinda guy (my opinion)
b) I have 'issues" (my wife's opinion)
