Following the stering advice yesterday (pointing out I had bought the wrong lightswitch) today i'm looking at the other switches.
This room has 3 lights, one I'm not going to use and will just cap off wires.
One is the main light and will have a dimmer by the door and an on/off on the other side of the room.
The last will just have one on/off (with the above one).
Again my problem is that the old switches wiring does not seem to match the new wiring, plus there seems to be something complicated about my dimmer......
My dimmer....
The connectors say 'L', 'Sw' and an 'wiggly arrow with a line going through it'. The instructions are obvious for one way connection but for two way I cannot get my head round the diagram.

Current Switch (I have already capped off one of the previous two way switches)
So I am replacing this 3-dimmer bank with a double toggle switch (not yet bought)
And the rear of the current dimmer is also confusing (top one is going to be the other switch for the dimming light, middle a normal on/off, bottom capped off)....
There are two wires going into the L1 and L2.....
Help appreciated!!
