An RV parts supplier should carry something close. There are also several similar options on Amazon. Are the ones you have faulty? If so, how did you come to that conclusion?

The switches themselves should be readily available. They snap out of those plates. I think I have a couple but they are black. If you pull those plates off, you might see some info printed on the side of the actual switch that can be used to search for replacements.

Actually the bad one is black. It is out in the weather on the back deck. You have to wiggle it some to get the lights to come on. Next time on the boat I will pull off the cover and check the switch itself.

I think those are fairly common....I think you could even put regular light switches in there with a little fitting... :-D
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.
