.... Also I would suggest tying a string or thin safety wire to the plug so you can fish it back and forth if it snags, same deal on the install, fish the wire ahead of the plug.
Can't comment on the aftermarket switches.

Have fun and cuss as required

Cussing was fun!! Great advice Mike on that string, however I found myself out in the shop (a barren garage I use in the winter) with no string or wire to be found. A kindly weedwhacker gave up about three feet of cord which I doubled up on the way out and easily guided the new plug right back down. I don't think it can be done any other way.
As far as the after market product, it did come with an adapter plug that does not fit on the column bracket so I have some extra 8" of wire shoved where it dosen't belong. All in all, an easy swap and now all my lights are working.
