@Kite:
Do you have spare units of the previous version of shoulder-button boards (pic attached) and would you be willing to sell and ship one? (to Netherlands)

I am looking for only the PCB for back-buttons, small buttons, in one row. I saw that Erik_gee sells a kit for 2x2 DMG buttons, but I haven't see what I am looking for. Actually, I want the PCB to use it with a bracket and configuration that is specific for Kite's back-board that I mentioned in 1st post.
Nonetheless, thanks for your comment Konnor!

HoolyHoo has a slim 4 button PCB/Bracket combo he offers.
Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for but I purchased this and it works great for my needs. Fits very well, and everything is good quality!

That one is very similar to the last version from Kite (the one I already have) which are designed to be used with soldered buttons. What I am looking for is a PCB for 4 membrane buttons (actually, my intention is to use original DMG select/start buttons for the shoulder buttons)

Ask and you shall receive:

I'd encourage people to buy from the sellers mentioned here, I'm not trying to under cut anyone by uploading them..
I'd appreciate people not selling them in bulk, sell to your friends or whatever but they've been put up there so people can get them easily and cheaply
just a note that the originals were 1.00mm thick, if you use OSHPark the default is 1.6mm. This might be ok for you but just be aware of this!
