I had mine apart yesterday to install the LED dome lamps. You are correct about the slide switches. They press against the bulb holders which in turn are held in place by a metal strap secured by flimsy plastic posts with hot-melted ends. This is guaranteed to snap off. There may be a way to use fishing line to secure the bulb holders against the underlying frame. There may also be a way of gluing a holder across the top of the bulb mounts to keep them from moving upwards when the switch is pressed from below.
