This one is for Melanie if you have time.

Here's an example picture of 3 Buttons, LED, IR Receiver plus LCD done as a prototype 'on the cheap'. It looks like a membrane but it isn't. It's actually all standard PCB mounted with the LED and Buttons mounted on the reverse side of the thru-hole-plated PCB.

Very neat Melanie

You forgot to mention the custom faceplate.... aka mounting frame for holding 4 RJ45 modules

What was the fascia made from ?
Is it a screen printed plastic overlay or printed paper behind plain plastic.
