lcd displays

 but you can fit them with led back lights of various colours

 the sliders can be replaced with the same ristance and size equivelents

the push buttons have to be de-soldered so you can move the prongs of
the grey button from the the bottom of the holder once removed

 you can clean the contacts with rubbing alcohol 

there is no replacement push buttons other than scavenging from
damaged keyboards and racks

 the power supply i am doing a new better switching psu design 
 and the prototype works great 

 i am just getting costing for a batch of pcb,s keep you posted
