    It depends on what switch you want. Do you want the guarded style (low profile) or standard style?

    It is a personal preference. I personally like the guarded better, it helps protect from accidentally turning on and off the saber by bumping the switch.

    It's up to you to decide. The guarded switches tend to look better but they go very deep into the hilt

    considering this is a preference type of topic I have a small question since I'll be making an MHS hilt in the near future. If I were to say make a saber (posted the design in my greeting topic) with one of the Anti-Vandal switches (all while including a soundboard), would that require a standard switch hole or a guarded one?

    interesting. I think I'd go with the bezel to keep a fairly clean look to the saber. thanks for the tip.
