--> So here are some pictures of my new box. Some of the LEDS are not working, do to that either the leds are broken or because the are hooked up to a resistor network that isn't working(therefore not getting power). The black plastic overlays that sit on top of the buttons are also not screwed into place because, I still need to figure out how to do that. For some reason, spark fun decided to make the screw holes on the overlays significantly smaller then both the rubber and circuit board layers... I'm figuring that I am just going to drill into the plastic and make the holes bigger. So, if the buttons look crooked it's only an optical illusion.

lol.. i could do the handlebar but probably not the coke.
This thing is bright .. like really bright. If the rubber wasn't dulling the LEDs .I think they would burn out your eyes.

I'm sure you've drilled plastic before, but I have more success not chipping plexi/plastic when drilling patiently and taking ample time. Sucks to break a project's face! done it! several times! good luck
