Lyndon,

The rocker switches are the good for a few reasons.

Convenient - The don't stick out to get caught on a headset cable or anything and flipped at an inopportune time.

Safe - If you ram your head into them for one reason or another, they won't punch a hole in you skull like standard toggle switches.

I think they look good on the panel.

What brand are they, are they backlit.
Thanks lyndon

The rocker switches that came with my recent kit are a Chinese brand RLEIL. I don't think mine were illuminated, but similar might be available as illuminated.

I did find some on Ebay (US version). I can't vouch for the seller.

These aren't' exactly what you were talking about I think, and I haven't used them, but these are big in the highlander build groups...

All kinds of options, backlit, icons, etc.

Those are Carling switched. Large, backlit, and very durable. Very commonly used in the offroad and commercial trucking world. As far as lit Kitfox type switched, doubtfully you dash itself is backlit so all you would see is the switch lit but no label.

I was really hoping to use a toggle switch with a light at the end of the toggle. It turned out to be much more difficult
than it was worth since I'm using the Vertical Power VPX and the switch circuit for a load circuit is to ground the pin on the VPX.
The toggle switches I found all needed power not ground so I opted for non-lighted toggle switches. Mine are fairly low
on the panel so hopefully bashing my head into them is less of an issue.
