Question about switch sizes

So I recently installed a power window kit in my Yar, and I already had the cold cathodes, so I have three switches sitting in three of the holes provided right underneath the parking brake.

Problem is none of them fit the holes. I have one circular switch with a blue LED and two rectangular switches that are too large for the holes they're sitting in... not the cleanest look in the world.

Anyone know where I can find a couple four-prong rocker switches for my windows and one three-prong regular ol' switch for my cathodes that fit those stock slots? How are switches sized and what switch would fit in the Yar?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Call sparks, and order up the fog light switch. The printed on fog symbol can be removed easily.

I will take a look at it, they are usually sized by the diameter of the base... I will take a look and figure something out...... Oh yeah did you see this ?

I can tell you that the standard Toyota dash fog light switch won't fit. I could get the part # if that helps you.

I'm just going to take the little pop-out bezel with the switch slots into the store. They may know.

Digikey has the measurements in the catalog....Give them a call and tell them what you want and what size and stuff. Digikey rules.
