I bought VictorsHome LW28-63 Changeover Switch as part of my camper van equipment.

Comparing the Selector Positions and Contact Body
I pulled the roof cables through the PVC route with fish tape.
I fitted plastic trim around the roof opening where the wires entered the van.
I completed the remaining light connections, covered the boxes and joined the final conduit sections.

My Takeaway from This Job
These selectors all use three positions, but the original has twelve terminals and the alternatives eight. Their current classes also differ, so the terminal arrangement and model designation remain visible alongside the common rotary action.

Selector
Three positions
Connections
Twelve terminals
The front selector and stacked contact body need to be shown together in the panel drawing. Record the actual terminal identifiers and the selected position labels rather than inferring the internal connections from the handle alone. In a van equipment layout, reserve rear space for the terminal screws and arriving leads. Keeping the exact purchased variant with that drawing distinguishes it from other rotary switches that share a similar front handle but use different contact arrangements.
Does The Handle Position Describe Every Internal Contact?
No. Keep the exact terminal and contact arrangement with the model record instead of inferring it from the handle.

Two Alternatives to Compare
The Heschen 125A and VictorsHome 20A alternatives use eight-terminal bodies, changing both terminal layout and current class from the purchased twelve-terminal switch.
