I would like to make my shift letters raised like this pic from a Jeep. I want to be able to light the letters using the back light source from the stock shift assembly.
Any ideas how this can be done at a reasonable cost. Was thinking maybe some inserts of some kind. :4-dontknow:

Just looking for ideas on this or anything else that could be done here.

you could modify some backlit keyboard keys, or something similar.

Here's what I'm thinking... You would need a wood or metal form of some kind, some plexy glass, paint and R, N, D, P, 3, L stickers. Make the form to shape your letters, bake the plexy then set it on the form. Let them cool, place your letter sticker on, paint it, let it dry then remove the sticker...

Sounds like a lot of work to me, but that's the best I have at 9 am without coffee.
