How to fix a dome light switch

[wright-47]

Hope someone can use this. It's not beautiful but it's hidden. This dome light has the toggle built right in but the switch part of the mechanism was gone. Bought a micro slide switch, filed the slide round, bent the tabs down to fit over the housing, then soldered the switch on. Got a piece of hard plastic and cut and filed to fit (with tabs bent over it) then drilled a hole for a stove bolt. Soldered the bolt to the copper contact for the light and attached to the plastic. Soldered the bolt to the center contacts of the switch and soldered a power wire to side contacts covered it all with liquid tape just to be sure of no shorts.
With all the info I have gleaned from you barners it's time for me to return the favor!!!
