   ive got single pole single throw switches for mine but not the hazards as wasnt sure if it would work but might give it a go soon. the only difference on mine is i only have two connecters on the back and not six. Them switch covers look smart where did you get them from and how much

   I just cut the wire then cripped a female clip onto the end then plugged it on to the back of the switch

   I wrote all this out earlier, but it didnt send;
   
   Any that starts "S" will do - as this signifies Single (1 switch)
   
   If you wanted one that switches two things at once then get one that starts "D" (Double)
   
   If you get one that lights up you would need a resistor to make it 3.3v from your battery +12v.
   
   Just seen what you have bought.. they should work fine mate, you would just use one side of the connectors - as long as the circuit is on a relay or less than 5A.
