Hey. Sorry for dragging up an old thread but I've found this issue today whilst installing my own switches. Haven't tried it yet but my thinking is the switch will seat perfectly fine if it wasn't for the front rocker button. So, theoretically, if you file off a few mm from the bottom of the rocker button, it should clear the molded lip on the dash. I'll try it tomorrow and if I remember will report back.

Ok reporting back...
Trimmed a few mm off the bottom of switch face plate last night, and it now fits without fouling the lip. Easy mod.
FYI I used a cordless Dremel with a cutting disc, and sand paper to smooth the edges back to normal.
Will add photos tonight at home, as work blocks the vbulletin add on required to reply to a post!
