Minivan Plate Foam

Minivan Plate Foam

Minivan Plate Foam

The minivan I have has 3 LEDs on the top of the PCB. The foam doesn't have cut outs for them (there's no way the laser can make indent cuts/cuts that don't go all the way through, so I'm sympathetic to this), so the foam didn't sit exactly flush, which meant the plate got pushed up. I cut the foam where the LEDs were and it fits better. Granted that probably compromises the sound a little, so it's a tradeoff.

When first installing the foam, it seemed too thick and with the plate on, some of the switches weren't making contact with the hotswap sockets, so I omitted the plate. After a couple days, I reinstalled the plate and everything seems fine now.

Happy with the product, it's just a little fiddly, and I can chalk that up to me being a novice with plate foam. I'd certainly buy it again, especially if the switches were soldered.

This company is the coolest ever. The fact that he took the time to make sure these foams fit perfectly in their respective keyboards is amazing. This foam (along with the Minivan case foam) made my Minivan with cream switches sound absolutely amazing. I'm using the stock plastic case and stock plate, so my fit was bang on. Originally I didn’t really care about the sound but after trying out this foam it made me actually get into how good these can make keyboards sound. Ive already ordered more for my other boards! Couldn’t recommend this stuff or this company enough.
