I am looking for a specific rocker switch for a small project I'm doing on my truck, wiring a fan override switch. I want a carling contour X12? style 2 led dependent/independent on off switch.1) The switch needs to be a pass through ground switch (when the switch is turned on, it completes the circuit to ground) 2) The switch needs a 12v circuit to light the led when the switch is in the on position and 3) The switch needs a 12v independent circuit to light the other led when the dash lights are turned on.
What I'm looking to do is flip the rocker switch on and have an indicator light come on, and not use a relay or backfeed power through the circuit and also have independent dash lights. Does anyone make such a switch? DPST 6 pin? 7pin? Is there a simple solution or am I an idiot for asking?

Problem solved by adding a relay and running the ground through it and activating it with a 5 pin rocker switch.
