Check out these microswitches. They might be what you are looking for. A guy on the Jockey Journal put them on some FU bars on an FX. I think they look pretty cool. I asked the guy for the source.
I bought one of these microswitches off the Ebay vendor. It fits the dash blank hole perfectly. The wire pigtail is nicely soldered to the switch. I put two bullet quick-disconnects on each end and ran the wire under the tank to my garage opener. It looks pretty good on the dash and I now no longer have the big hassle of reaching below my leg to activate my opener. It's right in front of me now. Boy, I remember the agony of constantly having to reach down for that old button. No more, I'm living large now!!
The switch is threaded from the underside. I have no idea on how the dude secured them to a handlebar. My guess is he just ran the wire down, than maybe used silicone to hold the switch in place.
