I'm very happy with the rocker switches I got from Rocker Switch Pros: https://rockerswitchpros.com/
All my switch actuators (the toggle) are custom engraved and the switch bodies a very high quality. This vendor provides great service and reasonable prices.
Don't for get to purchase the plug bodies and crimp-on terminals for a professional installation. I get these from Del City or a local electronics supplier.

I used Billet Automotive Buttons out of Australia. You can pick an engraved graphic for the face of the button as well as the color of LED back lighting. I've attached a pic of my dash when I installed everything and powered it up. The button back lighting is bright, but can be dimmed by adding a resistor to the wiring ( That's on the list to get done). Hope this helps.

I used IVA rocker switches from https://www.carbuilder.com/uk. They are a 1980's design with mini light bulbs not LED

You might want to check the thread depth and retaining nut on the switches. The thickness of the plastic dash and vinyl cover are too thick for some switches.
