Unhappy Lighting Bar Switch Wiring

Hi from the other side of the ditch
I have a problem I hope a smart Ranger owner can help me with.
I have just installed a nice light bar on the XLT using a plug and play loom.
It works perfectly BUT I would like to replace the teardrop switch with a 5-pin led rocker.
Evidently, I need to make some changes to the relay wiring as I can find no combination that makes the switch work properly.
The relay is a TR H101-12v four pin
Pin 30 has the battery +ve and a blue (+ve)? to the switch
Pin 65 has a white wire to the switch
Pin 87 has the positive to the bar
Pin 85 has the -ve to the battery and the -ve to the bar and the black (-ve)? to the switch.
Thanks
Mike

Why a 5 pin when Altonics an Jaycar etc will sell you a compatible single throw two pole LED illuminated rocker. e.g. https://www.jaycar.com.au/dpst-neon-...-mini/p/SK0995

You should be able to get a matching DPST from where ever the other five came from. We need to know more details (pictures) of the 5 pin switch rather than the relay if you really must use it.

Like this then: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Car-12V-...-/361734611159

Two earth pins to an earth. Link the power to accessory and small light pins and the other two go to the relay.
