What's the latest on these edge-lit/"led ring" pushbuttons I saw on Ond's cab?
nadcraker:
I love the pushbuttons that Ond created for his Retro-Futuristic Mame Cab here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,88912.120.html
Did getting these mass produced ever happen? I think this would be the only way I would implement LED buttons into my cab. Very classy.

Nope, it's a DIY job.
NinjaSquirrel did something similar on his Black Ops bartop:
If you don't want to go through all that work modding buttons, you can combine button parts for a "ring of light" effect (not the same, I know):

Hmmm, it's not the same, but it still looks better than lighting up the whole button. Is there a guide or more info available on how to do that?
It looks like you just use clear buttons with regular buttons?

Kind of a guide... http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,113154.msg1201658.html#msg1201658
Did way more work than what is actually NEEDED.

Cool! Thanks for that. I might do exactly as you did when I get around to my cab.
