An illuminated push button with an RGB LED ring, for a charge port release or any other function that needs a proper switch on the outside of a converted car.
A conversion has a handful of functions that did not exist on the original car and have nowhere obvious to live. Releasing a charge port lock is the usual one. A toggle switch screwed to a panel looks like an afterthought, because it is. This looks like part of the car.
The RGB ring is a status display, not decoration. Because the colour is driven by your wiring rather than fixed, the same button can be dark when the car is off, one colour when it is ready to charge, another while charging, and another on a fault. The driver reads the state from the same thing they press, which is the only place they will reliably look.

Compatibility
For any 12 V vehicle function needing a driver facing button, most commonly a charge port release.
The colours are yours to drive. The button does not decide what red or green mean; your wiring or controller does. Plan what each colour will signify before you wire it, because a status light nobody can interpret is worse than none.
Check the panel thickness and the hole size against your intended mounting before cutting. The wiring diagram in the Documents tab gives the connections.
