Changing vertical light switches to horizontal

Page 1 of 1
Yesterday our wiring was installed
and it looks like everything is according to plan. This all happened much sooner than expected so we didn't talk to the SS about having horizontal light switches.



The problem is we want to replace the standard clipsal switches with these from HPM after moving in.


The switch mounting plates are vertical like this one



Any advice on how hard it will be to get the switch mounts turned around?

Easy if you do it now and don't mind the switch being 50mm lower. Just unscrew and screw...


When the plaster is in it is difficult.

And if you do it tell the electrician - we moved some stuff and had lots of holes as he tried to find it...
