Default Vtec oil pressure switch delete

So i broke the probably 20 years old Oil pressure switch in my 93 EX AT...

And its way overpriced where i live so i wont replace it, is there any other way around this SAFELY?
(120.00 usd in direct conversion)

The car is running, no check engine light, but i guess im out of Vtec!

Did you check junk yards? eBay?

Yeah, i found a couple in a junkyard for half the price but they looked old and in bad shape, and since theres no guarantees and i dont know how to even test the thing...

I chosen not to buy because of that.

And e-bay is cheap (around 30 bucks) but the shipping plus taxes ends up same price as before.

Its a rather complicated and expensive car to maintain in my country, but im trying.
