In the middle of a Big Guns restore and I am lighting up the cabinet flipper buttons. Was hoping to do something similar with the credit button but to my surprise there only seems to be one style on the market - white!?
Is my google-fu failing me? Is this true?
Assuming it is, has anybody ever tried 3D printing something transparent or is there another clever way to put in a lighted credit button?
Looks like Taxi has a green one, but also opaque.

good call! You would think i would have realized this as I have a taxi. I think it's safe to say there aren't too many options for this button. Not really feeling a green button on my Big Guns.
I actually used a clear flipper button with a colour changing LED behind it. Have a look here -
I did a bit of McGyvering on the button but didn't have to drill out the hole or anything. I used the parts from the original button along with a piece of plastic tube. I can take some pictures of the inside if anyone is interested.
DZ.

Just saw this reply, very cool. So where is the clear plastic button coming from? I'd love to see the inside pics too.
