The micro switches from psp will be fine you can just swap the arm from your switch to the new ones just gently pry the old ones off and press on the ones you need

As long as you re wire the new switch the same as the old switch you will be fine so pay a ttention to which wire goes to the Banded and non manded side of the diode
