Default Stock Rocker Switch Replacement

I have a 98 Xj and I'm installing offroad lights. Anyone know where I can source the switch to replace a blank for a "stock" look. I'm looking at the switches at the bottom middle of the dash where the rear defrost button would be.

Quadratec sells pretty cool rocker switches that go in the place of one vent above your radio...

FYI if you have the defrost and wiper switches ONLY, the panel is actually not set up to accomodate a third. You'll either need to get a new panel or cut out the blank and jerry rig some redneck solution to hold the switch in place. If you take out the panel and examine the rear with the switches removed you'll see what I mean.

I pulled my 3-pos panel from an XJ a local dude was parting out and took the fog light switch at the same time. The 3 switches are physically interchangeable.

Yeah I bought a 3 switch one off ebay and found a store on ebay that sells new switches that actually are wire for aftermarket lights. Said it was for a TJ, but worked great.

Cost a lot to make it look factory, but I love the stock look

Why not get something like this http://www.prime4x4.com/shop/Switch-...-AT-Series.htm The extra switches gives you room to add on later for anything really.
