Here's an idea that involves a bit of work. Unbolt the mounting plate, there'll most likely be a manufacturer's name on the back of the switch.
FFs it would have been easier to do that than what you've done

As you can see I did remove the face plate and then I removed the mounting plate but there was no manufacturer's name on the back of any of the modules, I then reinstated the plate in order to photograph it and ask other professionals on a forum like the one.
This is my first post on this forum and I didn't expect a sarcastic suggestion such as yours, you only presumed I didn't check for a manufacturer's name on the switches, don't judge other tradesmen to your own standard!
 
You have no idea what my standards are pal. If you had seen the amount of newcomers to this forum who ask really simple questions then you'd maybe understand my sarcasm.
 
I think all you need to do is take the dimensions of the rear Metal box and decide what you need , contact Hamilton directly and they will make the new front plate to suit , and supply all the grid yokes and switches to match , they have done this for me on a few occasions on grid switches ...

Maybe if you had stated in the first instance that no 'id' was identifiable or present in your first post then you would not have received such a clearly understandable reply. You have only been here 2 mins and you ask for help and then insult a well respected member. you could have gone to your local wholesaler or googled grid switches to find your answer or just change them all to a manufacturer who is not ashamed to put an id on the back of them. If your going to post on here tell us the full facts because we have better things to do on a Sunday than guess what you know or what you have done.
 
Why are the forum members on here becoming more sarcastic and belittling everyday? If there that bored with new members asking questions: say nothing. FFS everybody needs to learn, that's why forums exist!
 
I think in this case the OP asked a reasonable question which took about 1 minute to correctly answer.

Unfortunately there is a tendancy for all newcomers to be treated as idiots.

True, but if people don't state all the facts it's very difficult to give a full and accurate answer. The majority of members on this forum give advice freely and without prejudice ,and it is excellent advice and help, but sometimes you get people who think that the members are mind readers and have nothing better to do
