My replacement switch was not drilled directly in the center. I wanted to leave a little more martial to work with. I drilled the the mount hole to 5/16 instead of 11/32. I then turned the bolt shoulder down to 5/16 using a file and drill chucked into a vise. Mated them together with some cutting compound. Cleaned and greased. Works great.

​​​​​​I'd like to add the dimmer actuator to the list of info. With mine all broken and missing, I had no idea what took up the gap

Little plastic black spacer between the dimmer lever and the dimmer rod. It rides a bump in the cover to actuate properly. (Grease helped keep it in place during install.)

Looks like the cover broke and spit out the actuator part. Never to be seen again. This has been broken for years.

Wiring was spot on. Thank you again.
