Are these compatible with the Drop ALT/CTRL/SHFT backlights?

I have a CTRL and it only has 3-pin sockets, so these 5-pin switches don’t fit it without trimming the extra plastic “pins”.
binary132That would be a bit tiring to do for every switch on a whole keyboard, but at least it sounds simple to do and not mess things up.

The Drop ALT/CTRL/SHFT should all use north-facing LEDs, so there shouldn't be any issues.
LifelongCabooseI thought I saw in the description that the light passthrough was south facing on these switches, BUT reading reviews it seems many are pleased using these on the Drop boards! My ENTR saved the day recently! Moving to house, internet is at house but big iMac is still at apartment, how do I write a big blog article?? By using my ENTR with an Apple Camera Connection Kit and a power adapter, into my iPad! Great typing experience, the Gateron Yellow are a joy, so I’m curious to try these Silentz. Will need to upgrade my keyboard though 😅
