Leafswitches - Check this out!!!!!!!!
Santoro:
Update, I was able to mod my Ponyboy Leaf Bracket to work with the RGB-Drive in a clear FXbutton. I will post a quick how-to tomorrow, but I basically needed to drill a hole in the button for the LED, then take a utility knife to the leaf switch bracket. Took me about 2 mins. The integrity of the bracket seems just fine after the mod.
I must say this arrangement kicks ass. YMMV.

Unless you took a knife to the top of the fixture (where the RGB-Drive gets installed) here...

It looks like there is a support structure under there. Removing it might be bad/difficult.
Looks like these were made specifically for the button, rather than a generic micro replacement. Which means, they probably wouldn't work for joys either.

I see that you posted a bunch of words. However, they are meaningless without a picture. ;D
Santoro:
I'll try to make them pretty pictures for you, ok buddy? :)
Santoro:
Here you go. I don't have your photography-fu, but it will do I suppose.
