I started working back on this there are really a lot of options, but before going any further I want to ask SP if they can provide some samples of polycarbonate + abs in the colors we need. I'd like to go cyan polycarbonate but I believe simply transparent is more compatible.
Anyway the options would be as follow, pictures soon to come as soon as I get confirmation from SP.
Standard Midnight full ABS (the color between brackets)
1) Alpha base (VCO on GB)
2) Numpad base (VCO on GB)
3) ISO (VCO on GB)
4) Midnight mods (VCO on GEW)
5) Midnight numpad (VCO on GEW)
6) Midnight additional modfiers (GB on VCO)
7 Twilight Modifiers (GB on VCO)
8 ) Twilight Numpad (GB on VCO)
9) Twilight additional modifiers (GB on VCO)
Midnight Backlight (with polycarbonate/PC)
10) Backlight base set:
----- Alpha: PC on GB
----- Mod: VCO on PC or PC on GEW
12) Backlight Numpad:
----- Alpha: PC on GB
----- Mod: VCO on PC or PC on GEW
13) Backlight additional modifiers
----- Alpha: PC on GB
----- Mod: VCO on PC or PC on GEW
Some more options:
14) Glow in the dark (5 GOW keys)
xx) additional spacebars (7, 6.25, 6)
To create something unique I'd prefer VCO on PC over PC on GEW. The result would very close to this
