Rocker switches - any real difference?

Aside from the labels on the rocker switches - specifically the Landing Light and Fuel Pump ones I'm interested in - are they any physical differences? Eg. one can handle higher current than the other? Etc.

Reason I ask is one of my AMEs in the past put a Fuel Pump rocker switch in the place of the Landing Light, and put a decal over the letters. I'm in the process of changing out one of the rocker switches anyway. So wondering if I should change that one out while I'm at it.

As it happens, one of my landing lights go out quite a bit. I've mentioned it to my AME but the next time he checked it, he said nothing was wrong. And perhaps it was vibration related. Of course, the weird thing is it's the OTHER one that is problematic - not the one with the Fuel Pump switch in its place.

FYI, I have a Seneca I.
