Relocating switches, need some info

In my 2017 BHBE, the "control center" contains the switches for the lights over the sink and in the living room. However, this is not convenient for us. So I want to add a switch between the counter and the cabinets to allow for better access. Now I can easily do this I believe. But...... I need your help. I am looking to see if anyone has a set of 3 switches in their unit that look like the below switch but with 3 switches in a row.

Does anyone have one of these 3 gang switches in their unit? If I can get a model, I may be able to order it. Any help is appreciated. I have looked literally everywhere online, but no one has it in BLACK. Thanks.

Do you have room to add a single switch? My 28dsbh has a double and single. One for the awning lights, one for the main cabin lights and one for the outside plumbing/sewer hookups on the driver's side.

You should be able to repaint the covers black pretty easy using different kinds of paint that won't peel off easy...

OK, I have found the answer. Burnstine's Distribution. They are a subsidiary of Collins. 1-574-848-1118. They work directly with SIGMA Switches and a bunch of other manufacturers. I contacted the customer rep and send her my picture and told her I wanted a 3 gang (triple) one in black, as well as a double. She got back to me with the exact part and it was only 10.00 for the double and 13.00 for the triple. Mind you this INCLUDES the base plate, bezel and ALL switches. Shipping was 12.00 for 3 day. They sell directly to the public. It is nice to finally get a company who makes things happen without charging me an arm and an leg. Just wanted to pass this on incase anyone else needs any electrical gizmos.

*** Update *** I have changed my mind on how the switches are going to be moved. I am now taking the over-the-sink and living room lights and putting them in the wall by the sink where the under-the-counter light switch is now. Then I am taking the under-the-counter light switch and the awning light switch and moving them above the cabinet door when you first walk in, under the counter top above the fire extinguisher. That way all the main lights are within reach of the counter whether by the door or by the sink, and the awning lights can be accessed from outdoors by opening the door and reaching in. That little command cabinet will only contain the monitor, awning control, and slide control. It is actually real easy to do and just makes it more "ours".
