The switches are both two triangles but the new switch has left and right the other way round.

Mark the wires before disconnecting and just transfer the wires

Is the white switch how it was originally wired? Looks like a link across the switch.

The two photos would make more sense if the new one wasn't pictured UPSIDE DOWN.
 
Sorry never thought
