Review: Light switcj - Great look good quality
Review: Good switch but couldn't use due to situation. - Delivered on time and I'm sure it would have been a great product as I've bought from this company before, but I couldn't use it as the electrical box cavity behind was too small on account of a mass of wires, being 2 way light fixture. I could have messed around trimming them back, but decided to spray paint the old switch. Definitely worth checking the dimensions as this switch is quite bulky at the back.
