2-way & Off Grid Switch - with Neon Indicator?

[DaveFix]

In a hallway where the lighting will usually be controlled by an IR occupancy sensor, I would like a 3-position switch. The switch will allow the lights to be controlled by the sensor, permanently on, or permanently off. As far as I can see the only solution is a "2-way & off" grid switch.

Is there a manufacturer producing one with a neon/LED indicator?

It can be achieved with a pair of one way switches in a 2 gang plate,

Switch, neon, 2G plate & 2G mounting frame.
The rocker can be engraved with ON and AUTO if you wish, possibly in your local key cutting shop.

Thanks guys. For myself I would normally go for the cheaper 2-switch option, but for this project I need operation of the switches to be very intuitive, so will have to go for the grid switches.

I've never used TLC before (usually use eBay) and I don't have any of their branches in my area, so I'm pleasantly surprised TLC - even with the one-off £4.49 postage - still works out cheaper than eBay.

There are other suppliers, I haven't looked at their stocks but Screwfix and Toolstation for a start.
