Common old switch L1 new switch.
L1 old switch L2 new switch.
L2 old switch L3 new switch.
 
switch #1 1 way..... red into L1, black into L2 (new switch). leave L3 no connection.

switch #2, 2 way..... red into L1. blue and yellow into L2 and L3, either way round with blue/yellow.

make sure the earth wires (CPCs) are terminated into the back box terminal if metal box.
