Default Off road lights switch

I had a daystar switch hooked up to my windshield mounted KC hilites. I've barely used it and the switch is already broken. My question is this- Is there another brand of switch that would be more sturdy and also fit in the same hole I cut for the daystar switch. I would also prefer if it had an LED, the light in the Daystar switch gets so hot! Thanks in advance for your comments!!

autozone has a variety of switches you can get that will be the same size as the daystar- also you can prevent the light from getting hot by adding a fuze at the switch less than 15 amp depending on what hot wire you used to run to the switch. make sense??

Painless Wiring has a setup for the whole panel if you don't wanna worry about looking for a swith that will fill in the hole for the daystar one, and the swithces are built in.
