I'm considering illumninated buttons for my player but have a couple of questions:

I have an Anoface and knob. Can I make use of Stu's kit? If so, is there someone UK based who could fit the board for me?

Cheers

Yes, you can. My player uses a kit from Stu with the polished face, Farnell clear buttons and UV Leds.

Rob Schofiel installed mine and did a most excellent job.

Thanks for that. I have the Darkstorm smoke lens: can I have any colour of LED I want so I can keep the same lighting colour?

I would use standard LEDs as included in the kit and glue on smoke plastic to the medium farnell button caps. Then I'd get a rainbow pack of gels and match the screen to the buttons. This is what I did with mine.

For the knob, use clear fiber and either put a ring of smoke plastic behind or glue a piece on the front.
