I haven't. But I have found that using relays will prolong the life of the
original switches practically forever. 0.1 amps (for the relay coil)
produces only 1/10000 as much heat as 10 amps for the headlights.
On the Stag, I was able to very carefully melt the plastic in the switch and
reshape it until it worked again. But I was lucky, no doubt about that.
The overheated contact had sunk into the plastic arm that carried it, so I
just heated the contact with my soldering gun until the plastic softened
again, then held it in place while it cooled. Blistered a finger, a small
price to pay.
