RGB LEDs

The cherry keys can hold 3mm LEDs

I need to investigate what leds can be used and at what price.

The cherry switches I have in my corsair rgb light up really nicely. Way nicer than the blue leds in my ducky. It's because the switches in the corsair have a clear body and the rgb is mounted beneath the switch directly on the pcb.

Long story short, those would be really cool to have, but I need to decide before I do #7

I have ordered Gateron greens which do have a translucent casing.
Perhaps I can use a programmable LED-strip to reduce the manual wiring
