I looked at the guns I had to work on here.
And found an interesting fact.
The two tabs on the side of your trigger group (the ones that are not there on your new switch) are just electrical safety.
You can simply solder the two together and remove the coper tab of the selector plate. Then you will only be left with a mechanica safety. I found out on a Echo1 G36. I had the Echo1 mechbox side by my Star G36 mechbox. The contacts where soldered together and the selector plate was just nylon, no copper plate. I soldered my selector plate and Tada! Works just like normal. The only difference is that there is a lot less resistance AND I can push both way inside. That removes a lot of friction off the selector plate and allow for a smoother movement. I think I will do that on all my guns.
It removes a safety though. But for people with higher spring/battery packs, it IS a very good thing to do. The battery will last longer and there won't be any melted selector plate left. Plus the smoother action. Now the only restriction I have on my selector plate is from the spring loaded bearing in it. Clicks very well with a more satisfying snap. Before I had a hard time changing fire mode from auto to semi. I had to slide back to safe, then switch to semi.
