 Hello

 I want to buy a handful of slide switches to replace the somewhat worn
 components on my Korg. Does anyone *know* where from please?

 Generically, this is what I need:

 Specifically, the mounting holes need to be on 20mm centres.

 So far, so good - a lot of searching can probably turn up what I want (so
 far though I have mainly seen switches with 28mm fixing centres, but I can
 continue to searchand hopefully identify a droop-in replacement).

 The problem is, I need switches where the switch "lever" is white or
 orange - see this picture for a shot of the front of a PS-3100:

 panel, complete with orange switches and also white switches).

 Clearly, I can search and search on Google and will no doubt end up having
 to do so unless someone can point me in the right direction!  So if anyone
 here has experience of buying such switches with different coloured levers,
 please help me cut down on the hours of searching it'll take me otherwise!

 (As a last resort, I suppose I might find some black ones of the correct
 size and try transplanting).

 happy Christmas
