It looks like it's only approved for Cessnas (and Reims), but it looks like a direct replacement.

They also have another kit with the ignition switch and locks that use the same key for baggage and door.

Without Push To Start, if you have SOS, it might require a wiring change.

I installed one in my M20C.  Wired per the installation diagram for the Shower-of-Sparks.  It works great.

The justification for an M20B or C is more straightforward, because originally those airplanes were equipped with a switch of similar architecture and function.  I simply noted that I reverted the aircraft back to a previous configuration applicable to earlier serial numbers.

For the airworthiness of the specific part, I referred to the PMA for other aircraft types.

I wrote it all up on a 337, noting the changes to the aircraft Owner’s Manual, and my FSDO agreed that as written it was indeed a minor alteration.

You will lose the ability to hand-prop your airplane, and you will need an IA who is agreeable to this as a minor alteration.
