Spaceman graphics and led's

Ever since I saw pictures for the Atlas III I've been really curious about where to get the LED and bezel they use and how they do the vintage radio gear-esque sticker/vinyl graphics.
Any thoughts?
Bigger pic of the Titan II with similar LED and bezel:
These are the closest LED bezels that I've seen in my couple of hours of searching the web thus far.

I seem to recall the faceplate being engraved plastic, the sort you see on door signs & utility plaques.

I think I liked it better when they were using jewel lights instead of LEDs (if they're not still using jewel lights or something).
Maybe they only used the jewel lights on some of their pedals?

Not sure I can help with any info on the graphic. They aren't engraved.
The New lights are interesting as you can dial in the brightness. That's what that larger bezel is for.

I really liked the first version of dimable aviation panel lamps that they put out;
I finally tracked them down to a surplus electronics shop in the States. I bought everything they had. I use them on "special" projects.

You can find vintage ones on eBay for not a ton of money. You gotta stuff an LED into them though

I was going to say: In the pic above; are they using actual lamps or just an LED inside the jewel. I did the latter recently for a build.
Those adjustable lamps are really cool, but a little pricey.
