This is only a remix of the top part. You can use the original bottom part.

Printed this on a Bambu Lab X1C with eSUN PLA+. Layer height 0.2mm and infill approximately 25% (shouldn't really matter).

Once printed, take clear PETG filament, and cut a few long pieces using a sharp knife (so it does not deform). Then glue these pieces from the inside using super glue. Push them firm against a flat surface, so the light pipes are as flush as possible with the case. Once the glue is dry, use sharp knife to cut the excess filament flush with the case, from the inside.

For glueing, I found it easier to slightly retract the filament, then apply some glue and push it back in. Don't apply too much, otherwise it will spill on the top surface.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

I added LED light pipes using clear PETG filament. I also reduced the size of the JTAG header (these was a gap of 0.4mm which looked a bit ugly).
