Dual pedal with a flip switch

So I've been planning a dual pedal build (OD and Boost in a box). I want to have a flip foot switch on it to reverse boost and OD FX order.

I have found the wiki wiring diagram, however, I do not have the 3PDT Order Switch PCB.

If I look at this diagram:

To what pin should the wires go ? I could order a order switch PCB, but with shipping and delay, putting an order just for that is not interesting.

One more question, could there be a way to connect a dual color common cathode LED to it so that we can tell which FX is running first ?

Thanks.

There are flipper switch diagrams on the interwebz on how to wire a said switch. I always have to google it my self. I think for the led question, you’d have to use a 4pdt.
 
I did loads of search for proper diagram but only found some with PCB. However after you mentioned a 4PDT, I found this:

SA = Send A
IN = Input
SB = Send B
RA = Return A
O = Output
RB = Return B
LA = LED A
LB = LED B

However, I think I would need to reverse the +/- for it to work with a dual color common cathode LED, right ?

Tare the positive to a resistor, the resistor to the middle lug, each sides log to the LED and the LED cathode to ground.
 

3PDT Order Switch Wiring

Im looking to hand wire a 3PDT footswitch to work as an order switcher in a dual overdrive I am making. I have the 3PDT breakout boards for the effects footswitches but do not have the breakout board for the order switcher because they are currently out of stock. Could anyone explain/show me how...
