on/off dash switch needed

62 F100 I have added some work/back up lights and would like a decent looking/fitting on/off toggle switch that fits in a 1/2 dia hole. Bonus points for a illuminated switch when left on. Bezel would be nice too.
Thanks

You can easily find nos and used vintage switches for sale on eBay. Some are illuminated, some mount below the dash. Plenty to look at.

I put backup lights on my truck and used an illuminated toggle switch with cover. I flip the cover up and then the toggle. The toggle has a light in it. I pretend that I'm arming something that Q made for 007.

Since you want to fit a 1/2" hole, you might have more luck searching for a pushbutton switch. These can be illuminated or not....

I used an old wiper switch for the back-up lights. Wired thru the lights so the lights have to be on to work.
