I'll be using a momentary pushbutton for mine, but I won't be using a guard. Rather, I'll be setting mine in so it can't be accidentally pressed. Maybe that'll work for you too.

thanks for thethought but i actually would much rather have a cover like i said before, cause that still has a chance of being pressed accidentally, please post anything you find versapak cause i cant find anything
ultramagnus:
hmm, you could try and make one, if you have some skills with wood/metal/plastic it shouldnt be too hard.
the other option i can think about would be get a ejection panel out of a f-16 or somthing similar

I did find a flip gaurd for 16mm pushbuttons here:

They have a very large selection and it shows pricing for single units. I have not ordered anything as I'm still researching and deciding whether I want an illuminated pushbutton or not. Just thought I'd pass along some info.
Stormy, I have not seen a momentary toggle switch anywhere and I didn't seen any at the link you posted.

If your CP sticks out over the sides of your cab, why not mount a pushbutton on the back of the cp. That is what I did with my slikstik CO and it works great and no one hits it my accident.
