Does anyone know if you can get a switch to use to activate a winch that matches the factory switch panel?

Suzuki are normally pretty basic with things like this, using industry standard sized parts where they can. Try measuring a switch and using those dimensions to search for similar switches on a components site like RS Online. That's how I found a good match for my older Jimny.

I just drilled the blank and fitted a rocker switch with an LED on my Gen3 for an accessory. I had the rocker switch so it didn’t cost anything.

I assume you are using a relay or solenoid on the winch, otherwise the current will be too high for the dash switch.

Is this as an isolation switch or a line in, line out, momentary switch? If it's the latter be careful as it's not unheard of for such a switch to cause the line to keep retracting on its own, doing serious damage to people and things.

Looking for an isolation switch (via a relay). Didn’t really fancy drilling holes in the dash or obvious aftermarket switches. Although I guess drilling a blanking plate and a toggle switch wouldn’t be too bad.

Found a few options on eBay. On looks similar, but I guess buying it is the only real way to see.

Have a look on  HERE , I believe the switches are the same size as some Toyota switches as well.
