Karl,

I've used these for stomp boxes sometimes to save space:

http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?ModuleNo=35032&doy=8m6

They're DPDT, so you could wire them the way you describe. The body  
height is only 12mm, and the pins stick out another 2 or 3mm. Made by  
Alpha, so you'll probably find them other places besides Maplin.

HTH,
Tom
