Default New 2020+ Start Button Conversion

Ever since I saw the concave design of the newest style start buttons, i've been on a mission looking for it secondhand. I prefer the hybrid blue version as the colour on that is really nice. I really like the amount of depth the new design button has. It's really hard to find these buttons second hand as they are very new. I was lucky enough to be able to source 2 second hand hybrid ones from Lithuania for just under £50 GBP and with a very light polish made them look brand new.

Unfortunately the buttons are not direct plug and play. You can see from picture below of the difference between the two connectors. The new design button has completely different connector and number of pins. The PCB design is also different. So, since I really wanted this, I set out to convert my 2is button and below are some pics of my end product that I wanted to share. There is also a video demo which shows the backlight. Really pleased with how it turned out. Button looks, feels and works exactly like OEM

Cluster swap coming soon. It's a more time-consuming mod.
