I think i'll use these, because they are amazon prime.
Edit: nevermind they aren't ill use the ones you recommended.

Maybe try asking your local Microcenter or other hobby electronics shop. They might have some switches.
RadioShack would for sure have this stuff, but it's gone now.
(RIP RadioShack, you will be remembered fondly ;-
I still have 2 radioshacks nearby me. I'm not sure about a hobby store though.

Says right in the listing: "20C or above discharge rate Lipo battery is recommended."
With THREE of those motors running at once you could hazard that you need 60C as an assumed minimum, but that's not always a given since you may be dividing the stall load amongst them so your potential peak draw is unknown.
If you can't do the relevant math to figure out what is required for THREE of those motors then it's not a good idea to just buy random parts and hope they work. If you wanted to know a specific answer to this question it would be best for you to ask the manufacturer of this motor what they recommend, or ask the seller.
Also read up on what "C" ratings mean.
I also want it to fit inside the battery tray in the rapidstrike, its ok if i have to cut some of it i just don't want it taped to the side.

If you don't want to be constrained by available switch options then what you need is a relay that has a coil compatible with the operating voltage range of your circuit. The relay contacts will handle the high amperage circuit, while your lower amperage rating switch will only need to handle the wattage of the coil for the relay.
This leaves the available options for your trigger switch wide open.
Im just trying to find the ones that are black and red and have the rollers at the end, I'm still running those 2 xp180's on 3 trustfires (which i know they suck) I'm going to buy the third one when i find the switches and battery i need.

Yeah some people say that 1c=1a but i saw that equation and i wasn't sure which was right.
