Lighting Arcade Buttons

[ogama8]

I would like to know how people have backlit the DJTT clear/black arcade buttons or how they were lit in the MF3D.

Any help is appreciated.

Yeah, I've lit buttons like that before. I was looking for a little insight as to how they're lit when they're in the 3d b/c:
a. you can't light them that way in mass.
b. you're lighting the rim, not the center.

MF3D buttons got transparent rims.

Yup. Where do you suggest putting the leds that light them? DJTT sells the ones with the rims.

I would add it from a side of the arcade button and ofc glue it or use some silicone. Other thing I would do is to take isolate tape or something and set it around every button so when single LED lite it can be isolated between other buttons.

Ok. When I have a chance I'll post pictures of how well that works. Thanks.
