Post by: pcates on November 30, 2005, 11:22:24 am: I am also looking for something like those, but I do not need them lit. I just want a small, nice looking button to use for an esc key.
thanks, Patrick

Theres a thread somewhere here about making these on your own in various colors.

There you go. But the one thing is you'll have to piece together everything yourself. It should end up costing less than $20 a button, I think.

Post by: SirPoonga on December 07, 2005, 11:49:14 am: As someone said you best bet is ebay. Remember these are atari. Also remember that you can sometime find full control panels for less than the price of the buttons alone.
