12v Rocker Switch

[94BULLITT]

Does anyone have a good source for a double pole 12v rocker switch? I check with Napa, Pep boys, Dorman, Summit racing, and JC Whitney. I can't find exactly what I am looking for.

Amazon has some pages full of them. Try typing in 12v rocker switch, 12v switch, automotive switch, etc.

Well, I said they had 9000 to choose from... I was just over on mouser, and found some illuminated 12 volt fully sealed against water even under pressure. about 11 bucks I am not sure what you need. you have to play around with the filters to find what you want.. It takes a while.

That sounds pretty nice. I am looking for a rocker switch that is double pole (2 wire hook up), illuminated would be a added bonus. Waterproof would not be bad either but not necessary. I am looking for something that only takes a about a 1/2" whole for the switch. It is for 2 LED work lights. I have narrowed some of the filters down on digikey but is hard because on some I could go more than one way like current rating, who cares if it is more than I need. I am flip flopping between Amazon and Digikey right now.

Is it just 2 wires? as that is just single pole single throw. SPST... if you have 4 wires total in other words 2 circuits to turn off and on only. that is DPST double pole single throw. IF there are 3 wires total, that you are switching a center wire two different ways then that is single pole double throw SPDT. Tell me again how many total wires or what you are trying to switch, and I can help find them.

I read your respons again, I am thinking just SPST and you would like a 1/2 hole mount, would like illuminated, but you are saying waterproof not required, so I guess you have a cab.. let me see is that right?

I am looking for a switch with a 2 wire hook up so SPST, don't know why i was thinking double pole. Does not have to be illuminated but would be okay. It is for the BX but I don't think need it to be waterproof but it would be okay if it was. If waterproof was only a couple buck more I would go for it but it does not need to be a marine grade. The only time it would have a chance at getting wet is when I wash it and where I plan on mounting the switch it should be clear of water.
