@Sb2512 anything specific that you are unable to achieve using OOTB select? Your options

1. Create a custom component just like site dropdown, and handle data in your own way(prefill, submit, data binding)

2. Overlay the OOTB one

3. Create a custom component and have a hidden field(OOTB) that is used to read selected dropdown data and map it further. -> My preferred way in case there is data logic
