Default Looking for U-shaped Switch Guards

Hello!
I am building a RV-9A and currently I am designing my cockpit-panel. I am looking for U-shaped Switch Guards to protect the toggle-switches. I was googling and looking for hours and days but all I found so far are one that were too big (i.e. the wire was to thick and the radius of the "U" too wide so the whole thing looked "too much" compared to the switch).
The smallest type I found were they type UB04X062 (with a wire-thickness of 5 mm and a radius uf the U of 30 mm).
So I was wondering if someone has switchguards which are smaller (maybe with a radius of 20 mm and a wire-thickness of 3 mm).
It should look at the end like on the attached photo.



Thank you so much for your help!
Best regards from Austria!

Josef
