Hi,
This is for a boat with 12V electrics, so most parts are similar to auto electrics. For a new engine control panel I'm looking for two push buttons, both need to be two pole changeover. Does anyone have any suggested sources?

Alternatively if anyone knows a range that has a 2g intermediate in...
