Those toggle switches were a very common generic style of switch, they were made by many different manufacturers. I have some NOS somewhere but god knows where they are. I have boxes of old electronics stuff , all unsorted. Now and then I have a cleanup and some of it is chucked out. I will have a look and see what i can find. The original CMP examples I have come across , taken off the dash, are usually in terrible condition, they were a rather fragile construction with a cheap cardboard/composite insulation backing material. .
Found these
