Exactly Mike!
I was pulling the chassis and it was very hard to get that one switch out. it actually scratched the inside of the cabinet while I slowly removed it.

It is a side mount and comes out sideways too.

As for the knobs, I got really lucky a while ago and got about 8 in a big lot of knobs. Hopefully the right ones. See pics, are one of these the correct ones? Is the one on the set original? I have seen it with the large flat one.

Oh and as for the eye tubes, not 6T5's Icon_redface

5 6U5's 2 6E5's and a 2E5. Not sure if the one in it is a 6T5 and I aint taking the chassis out again.
