You could also make a small mounting plate out of Lexan and just route it flush with your CP. |

I don't know what shape you want the mounting plates to be, but if you want something easy you could us a large stainless steel flat washer as the plate. You could then use a forstner bit to cut the recess. This would require each button to have it's own plate but would be less work. -Scott |
