Me too. I know MPC Stuff has them for the XL, but I don't know for sure if they fit the 2500. So I didn't buy them. But they look the exact same.

I just messaged them about the buttons...

My guess is that the F1 buttons are the same as the numeric ones.

If so then Im going to replace all the light grey ones with the black ones and leave the dark grey ones. 8)

Replacing the F1-F6 buttons, ENTER button, -/+ button, INPUT THRU button and the bottons under the DATA WHEEL.

Or I just might have them all black?

Not trying to be FUNNY, But I would REMOVE THE CASING, And take one of those PERMANENT FAT BLACK MAGIC MARKERS ( AVERY MARKS-A-LOT, With the SQUARE TIP) And color it :idea: , As far as I know that stuff is hard to remove. If it ends up looking like $#!+ you could always by some new ones. If anyone does try it, POST PICS!

I just tried it on a piece of glass and a piece of hard plastic, Did'nt let it dry long (Maybe 10 Seconds) but that $#!+ was hard as hell to get off and still was not able to remove it all, So if you apply a couple of coats and let each coat dry it should be good.

DON'T KNOCK IT TILL YOU TRY IT!
