wiring up the OTTATTW switch might be another story
I figured rather than polluting other threads this needed it own place.
Post up your diagrams, questions, concerns here. Im certain we can all get these figured out they are much easier than they appear.

^Which switches are you getting? I forgot which ones I ordered last year for my other roof lights. I'm wondering on the exact diff btwn these two (other than what I'm reading, which I understand as gobbledegook:


1.)
Product ID: V1D1J66B-AYCZL-1ZL
Manufacturer: Carling Technologies
V-Series Contura II sealed rocker switch, ZOMBIE Lights
Details

SPST ON/OFF switch
Black hard surface rocker,BLUE lens.
Two incandescent lights.
The Upper light is ON when the upper part of the rocker is pressed (ON).
The lower light is independently wired
This switch uses the same light configuration as the ARB switches.
V1D1J66B is rated 20A @ 12V.
V1C1J77B is rated 20A @ 18V.
No rear barriers in the back between terminals. VCH connector housiings can be used

2.)
Product ID: V1DAF76B-AYCZL-1ZL
Manufacturer: Carling Technologies
Contura II Sealed rocker switch, ZOMBIE Lights
Details

SPST ON/OFF switch.
Black hard surface rocker, BLUE lens
Two incandescent lights.
V1DAF76B has a 18 volt upper independently wired light (the 18 volt incandescent light will produce about 1/3 less light than a standard 12 volt incandescent light when used in a 12 volt circuit). Separate grounds for the internal switch lights Rear barriers between the terminals.
V1D1G66B has a 12 volt upper independently wired light. Common ground for the lights in the switch. No rear barriers
The V1DAF and V1D1G have a 12 volt lower light that is ON when the switch is turned ON.
Rated 20A @12V.

Mel, here's the diagrams for your switches

The one on the left is the #1, and right is #2. Your 2nd switch also has a set of barriers between the terminals so you could use standard 1/4" push on terminals (female) instead of ones that are 100% insulated.

^^ I'm have Jim make me some custom L.E.D. switches, the logos look like dullys, he is going to try and squeez 4 logos on one switch for my roof lights and change some of the text on the switches, they are all off/on switches Amber on top and SB Red on bottom bar which is lit when lights are on except for my top roof light switch is a off/on/on, it will turn on the first set of roof lights on with the first on, then the second on turns all the lights on! Hope that makes sense! I will post a How-to with pics!

The difference between the switches above is the light config, one is lit on top when switched on and the other is lit on bottom when switch on, it's hard to tell other that, call Jim at Otrattw and he can go into more detail, he is very helpful!

The Switch guys are awesome! I asked on their facebook for some pink LEDs and they got some and are going to start producing them! I can't wait to buy some!

Jim at Otrattw just sent me the prototype switch symbol design:

I'm changing the two covers on my front and rear roof lights to this new style, $5 for each cover! My front 4 dually d2's will use the off/on/on switch to control both sets on one switch!

OTRATTW makes a 3, and 6 switch frame that you can install switches into. Carla I have an extra 3-bank switch if you are interested.
