This is the switch handles after I put metal pins in to replace the broken posts. On two of the handles you can see the original plastic posts the handle pivots on. I used a little super glue to ensure the post stayed put. For the few that the hole ended up too large I used super glue gel to fill the hole. I put a light oil coating on the pin to try to prevent corrosion.
