I used PhotoGlow panels to backlight translites and backglasses. Full size edge to edge. No hot spots.

The ones behind my bar lift up like real backglasses with the light panel behind. Lexan in front of the translites, nothing in front of the backglass.
The Cinderella glass is mounted with the wood from an old head unit. The left side is removable to slide the glass out.
These aren’t great pictures- the lighting effect is far softer and more natural than appears in the pictures.
