Daytona VR button alternatives
SailorSat:
My local electronics store has small rectangular pushbuttons (with leds). Don't know how "small" it should be.

Other than that there is the APEM button series - they are smaller than the IDEC buttons used in the original panel.

The APEMs are not cheap though.

I have added these to my custom steering setup.
They don't light up, but they're small and have a good feel.
BadMouth:
Looking back through my PM's, it looks like I parted with the color square ones.
As a thank you for all the work you put into Outrun FXT (although I haven't played it yet because my house is a construction zone),
I'll ship you a set of the rectangular ones I'm hoarding if they're not too big. :cheers:
They are illuminated and in Daytona colors.
These are smaller than the standard rectangular buttons, which are 33x50mm.
Howard_Casto:
Thanks for the replies guys. It looks like I've got real world crap to deal with again so I don't think there is a point in figuring it out right now. If I can slip in and get the frame finished I'll come back to it and I'll actually have the panel cut so I know the exact space I'm working with (it's still fairly small).
BadMouth:
Only if you let me pay for them. You are too good to me man. Like I said though, unfortunately I'm in a holding pattern again so if you sent them now I'd just lose them. My house isn't a construction zone, but I'm on the final stretch fixing up the Camaro and just when I had her ready for paint the electrical system goes haywire on me... so I now live in an auto parts store. ;) And I've got other stuff to deal with as well, so it's the least of my worries. Thus the lack of updates on any of my projects the last couple of weeks.
