    need quiet light switch

    Would this also do? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/381021632932 I will just have to take a leap of faith and trust you that they are quiet. Also will they be the same size as the old ones? What do I have to do to the wall if they are bigger or smaller? (Sorry, newbie question).
