What all needs to be changed? Do you need to dissamble the wiring harness and put spade connectors on all the wires to attaché them to the rotary switches?
suppose to be plug and play...

Guess I'm just lucky, my touch pads are 10 years old this year and never had a bit of trouble with them. Knock on wood.

Which pads swap out with this
Short answer is YES! For 2010 - 2014 models it is plug and play. I have a 2015 21TRX and here is a post I put on the sticky at the top of the Triton page referencing this issue:
!Hey guys, I purchased one of these kits from Carol. I had a touchpad dash that gave me nightmares. Carol contacted the manufacturer of my touch pad system and they said to convert to the rotary switches would mean a complete rewire, because they did not have a conversion kit for a 2015 model. After some thought, I contacted Carol and told her I had a plan to make these rotary switches work on my rig. I ordered the switches and harness and here is what I did to convert it: 1) removed the touchpad system & brain 2) Clipped all existing wires to box lights, bilges, pumps, anchor & navigation lights. Clip the just behind the gear lever control. 3) Identify each wire by putting 12V to it and see what comes on & label the wire. 4) install the new switches & harness. 5) Clip the wires from the new harness at the 40 pin connector (Carol supplied a schematic of what each wire went to on the dash) 6) match the wires from the connector to those you've labeled from the old system, use solder & butt connectors to connect the two ends.
It worked perfectly! You will give up livewell controls at the bow & you'll have to purchase the bow panel that has the oval switch panel as opposed to the rectangular switch panel, but you still have your anchor light control & trim control at the bow with the new panel. Wiring time was about 12 hours and I'm not a wiring guru, but I now have a much more dependable system! Give Carol a call!!!
I'll stick with my touch pad. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
