24 Volt Switch
Military aircraft is 24 vdc and some construction equipment. As a former aircraft electrician (and now Master Electrician) I don't recall any 30 amp rated switches and with illumination.
Do you have room for a 30 amp rated 24 volt relay and then just use a 12 volt DC rated switch (Radio Shack) to operate the relay and put a dropping resistor in the ground lead of the switch light to drop it to 12 volts. The switch itself does not care if its 12 - 24 or otherwise as far as the on off part can carry the current.
Check Surplus Center they have lots of 24 volt stuff. http://www.surpluscenter.com/electric.asp BG
