Turn signal switch replacement

1977 F250 4x4 automatic... No brakes or turn signals... Replacing the switch in the stirring column ...
Does anyone have a good reference on where to purchase the replacement part?
Is there a tool needed to insert the wire leads into the plastic connector?
Thank you for all the great advice here... I hope to contribute someday from my own experience also.

No tool needed to insert them and I just use a tiny little screwdriver for electronics I got from Radio Shack to release the tabs in the connector so the wires can be pulled out.

Try the link below. Seems like there is a good YouTube video for a mustang that is very similar to ours.
