Upgraded button module

After prototyping the buttons on the breadboard I set out to make a module that would fit into the enclosure and allow for user input. I initially started with five separate push buttons and soldered them into a harness that could be attached to the Raspberry Pi. The five push buttons were attached to a small 3D printed module that would fit into the larger enclosure. 

Shortly after getting this working I came across a complete five-button input on Amazon that would fit my needs perfectly. They were small and cheap and would save me a heck of a lot of soldering. I set out to redesign the enclosure to incorporate this new input and have found it to be a great solution.

Here is custom input I designed as well as the new one I found pre-manufactured:
