updating power window switches

I am planning an interior project and I want to mount the power window switches either in the center console or back on the doors but I want to go with a modern type rocker switch instead of the chrome one that came with it. I am wondering how hard it is to convert the wireing and does anybody have a switch that they use that works well or any pics of this done.

Thanks

Go to a salvage yard and look in newer vehicles. Take enough wiring with the switch. Like S10Fan's link, dive into the street rod world. Tons of awesome parts out there.
