Canon 550D Microswitch Nightmare

The microaswitches on the SD card door and battery door of my Canon 550D are kaput after I damaged them by my careless tinkering. Now the switches are no more.

Question is, is it possible to short circuit the microaswitches (to make them permanently on)? That way, at least I can still use my camera.

All help is welcome.
