How to Install an Artisan Keycap: Top-Mounted vs Bottom-Mounted LED Explainer
By Takara Model Studio
To make a glowing artisan keycap shine, you first need to match its light position to your switch. Keycaps are usually available as top-mounted or bottom-mounted LED — and picking the right one decides whether the eyes and arc reactor actually light up. Here’s how to choose in under a minute.
▸ Step 1: Find Your Switch’s LED Position
Remove an existing keycap and look at the switch. If the LED sits at the top of the switch socket, you want a top-mounted cap; if it’s at the bottom, choose bottom-mounted.
▸ Step 2: Match It to the Keycap
Transparent resin details only glow when the light source lines up. On the Johnny Iron Man keycap, the arc reactor, eyes and backpack are best lit when the position matches your board.
▸ Step 3: Install and Press Firmly
- ▸Align the stem with the switch socket.
- ▸Press down evenly until the cap clicks into place.
- ▸Turn the backlight on and adjust until the glow hits the translucent parts.
Q: How do I know if my keyboard is top or bottom LED?
Remove a keycap and look at the switch. The LED position (top or bottom of the socket) tells you which light-position keycap you need.
Q: Can one keycap work with any light position?
You get the best glow when the position matches. That’s why artisan sets offer both top and bottom options — always select the one that fits your board.
Q: Is the Iron Man keycap easy to install?
Yes. It uses a standard cross stem and installs just like a normal cap — align, press, and light it up.
