Couldn't you modify any square button switch? Cut out the little groove for the LED, is it? and away you go.

If the switch cap is hollow make one or fill it?

about the best i can do with the images i have sorry .

as for moding a switch its something i could do i was just hoping its a common off the shelf switch it does appear to have an LED attached to it as well?
cheers

Looks like a gaurded switch cover to a fuel panel on a Boeing 747. The outboard wing tank fuel dump switch to be exact. But these pictures look like it has been painted.

It may depend on which part of the planet you live on to get hold of these easily, in so as far as access to purchasing is concerned.. I've travelled a bit & worked with these switches before, but it's all down to local for accessibility... so where are you at, on the globe?

 

[judgedredd]

United Kingdom i have a friend in USA i could get them shipped too though
do you have any other info a make or model number or even a discription to search google?
cheers mate

I didn't know you were in the UK. If that's where the switch id from try Chris Cooper from the UKG. Send me a PM
He's a flight techincian in Gatwick

Chris agrees it looks avionic but doesn't think he can help. Sorry dude

 

[judgedredd]

well thanks for trying

I had a Starship troopers communicator with the same button. Just FYI that red part is probably glued in since it travels up with the button if I recall. I think you can pretty much find it at some online electronics sources just send them a picture.
