Try the Lutherie Information Website for CAD files in .zip format. There is a lot of information on that site.

I mean this switch.
The CAD drawing shows:
Width = 0.375"
Plate length = 1.875"
Hole spacing = 1.625"
It looks like it is for the same type of lever switch.

The CAD drawing is for the switch dimensions, not the pocket dimensions. From that information awe_indo would need to decide the dimensions to make the pocket. One dimension that is not shown in the CAD drawing is the depth of the switch.
He would need to have one of the switches available to check that this CAD drawing is for the same size switch. This CAD drawing may not be useful to him.
I have attached a JPG version of the 3 or 5 position switch drawing.

it's korean 5 p switch
I try machine it next week.I let you know if it have an issue...
But i still confuse with the tool to cut that hole...what size of router bit use to cut that hole?
I haven't seen any dimensions for the depth of the pocket that the switch is installed into, but the bit needs to be long enough to reach the bottom of the pocket.
The diameter of the bit needs to be small enough to cut the pocket corner radius that you wish to use. You will need to use a depth of cut that is about 1/2 the cutter diameter. It will take some number of step-downs to reach the bottom of the pocket.
The feed rate needs to be determined by looking at a feed and speed chart, or by trying different feed rates in scrap wood until you find an acceptable result for the wood that you will be using for the guitar body. It depends a lot on the type of cutter bit you will use.
If you look for a guitar body drawing that uses this same switch, and find one, you can use the same pocket dimensions from that drawing when you create the gcode. The dimensions that kimosabi provided is a good start and you can modify those if you need to.
