    Too big or too small? I've had to cut the little notches out of the inside of the opening for both switches I've installed.

    They are designed to fit in those openings , yes

    Check the link I posted

    They aren't rockers though they push in to activate like the OEM switches

    If you get the correct ones for your model year they should just push in , I don't believe the little tab differences in the mounting holes that correlate to the factory switches that go in them factor in with the AOB switches but if you did have an issue you can just use a file to remove the bump on the switch

    " push switch from AOB is a single throw ON - OFF switch designed to operate your 12 volt accessories. it has a face surface size of 1.54" x 0.83" (39 mm x 21 mm) and uses the original mounting hole of the vehicle. "
