I might add some color (CMYK) to it but we'll see
Hi Elth, could you please post pics of the areas on the plastic case you had to cut/file down to acommodate Leeku's plate/PCB?
I went in not knowing that the case needed to be cut, so pretty much everything is done except that.
The keyboard is currently at work so I can't snap any pictures right now, but don't be discouraged after finding out you need to modify the top case for it all to fit.
I've circled the areas on the plate that interfere with the top case; the cuts are very small except for the piece in between the F-row and number row. Also, I'm not 100% on the spot above the Esc and the spot below where the 3 indicator LED's are, but when you try to assemble you'll see if it needs to be cut

Thanks Elth, I've identified the same 7 points - that was the easy bit. What I'm struggling with is gauging/measuring how much of plastic from each section needs to be removed. I thought I'd just go for it & started filing the left arrow key section but it was so slow, imprecise and messy that I just gave up. Maybe I'm not using the right tools.
On top of that, I'm not sure how the cable is supposed to be routed as there doesn't seem to be enough space left inside the case (unless the preexisting USB-mini socket can somehow be repositioned, or there's a daughterboard/other parts I'm either missing or unaware of).
It's frustrating to be stuck at this stage as all the electronics work has been done.
