[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 25985, member: 55"] You got to look at what a switch is. Basically, when you flip it one way, the circuit is complete, and when flipped the other way, there is a break in the circuit. Bout the only real damage would be if the contacts get too corroded, but unless you submerge it in salt regularly, that shouldn't happen but every 4 or 5 years at the most. 2 bucks plus 5 minutes every 5 years isn't a big deal at all. Go get a few of those 2 position toggles, the 2 dollar ones, and then cut a piece of plexi glass for your board. Paint the backside of the plexi, and it usually has a pretty good look to it. Drill your holes for the toggles, and walla. [/QUOTE]
