Placed a copy of this post here for anyone planning to and or building a Bat Vehicle.
For anyone wanting to do their own led backlit panels and buttons there is an excellent discussion article that
covers most of the methods at:
https://hackaday.com/2011/02/10/backlit-buttons-and-panels/#:~:text=The%20parts%20start%20off%20as%20clear%20acrylic%2C%20and,now%20a%20frosty%20white%2C%20ready%20for%20leds%20behind.
Most of these panels start with a lexan panel spray painted with Fusion or similar coating.
Then areas are removed with a CNC controlled laser, engraver or milling cutter.
Others leave the protective backing on and draw their layouts on this backing, after which, they use an Exacto razor holder to cut out the areas that they want to paint or sand blast. Still others computer print their layouts on peel off adhesive backed paper or card stock. Works like charm if you don't have access to laser or cnc mill/router.
