The Narva Rocker switches fit, you just need to file a bit out of the dash to make the opening rectangular.

If there the same size as GU, yer as above, file the one corner out and Narvas fit perfect

I didn't file mine. Just pushed firmly. But the standard Narva ones will do fine.

Carling Contura Rocker Switches are also a snap fit - no fiddling required

They are the same ones they use in the ARB Air Locker kits - I use them for everything, because they look so tidy, no drilling etc required.

I use the LED backlit type imported from Mouser electronics in the 'states

Yeah any 34.5mm x 20mm Narva Switches fit perfect, the likes of:
#63010BL up to #63027BL

On page 3 of the Narva Switches listing here:

I find it better not to file the corner out of the dash, switches are a lot firmer and stay in.
