Hello! These covers/plates are made for these 5-button programmable bluetooth keypads. It seems to be one of those things that gets rebranded, so I've linked a few options off Amazon that look to be the same. (Mine is the Tangxi one, but I assume they're the same)
These keypads are great to make your own bluetooth media remote for binge watching a show on your laptop. Making it easy to skip through opening/ending credits, jump ahead/back a few seconds if you missed a joke, changing volume, and of course play/pause. These keypads can also be used for creative work, such as to program hotkeys for art/editing programs. 

Some notes!
The software that was provided/linked to in the manual sucks. It seems to be an older version of the software used. I found an alternative that worked just fine, which you can download from here: https://sikaicase.com/blogs/support/setting-for-software
Secondly, I got my keypad for $22, so keep an eye out for when they go on sale if you wanna buy your own. Here are a few options off Amazon. (Mine was Tangxi, but they should all be the same)
Tangxi:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BYPBGZ23
Diyeeni: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H5K9N6HL
Dpofirs: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H92YQ9YT (Cheapest at the moment of writing)

What's included:
OEM Version (5 separate plates, uses original screws / securing hardware)
AIO Version (2 covers, requires drilling out the holes of the PCB to 3mm. Requires 4x8-12mm screws)
Both versions of the SolidCraft files to help with remixing/customization. (Made in SolidCraft 0.30.1)
SVGs / Vectors of the symbols used (Found here  https://github.com/biglinux/biglinux-icons-material/releases)
3MF for INDX of the AIO version, made for 0.25mm nozzles. (You can easily make this with 0.4mm nozzles, the symbols just may not look as nice.)

Extra notes:
The nozzle profiles for INDX 0.25 were made by @wilhems. Prusa is still working on official profiles.
I realized after creating the CAD file for the 5-plate version, that my measurements were of the cut acrylic plates, which is why the numbers felt odd. The AIO version has more hard numbers, and so the sides of the plates actually line up a little nicer with the sides of the PCB. (The OEM versions of the prints came out ever so slightly undersized, meaning you can feel the ridges of the plates, and it doesn't feel as professional as I would've liked. Buuut I'm a bit lazy to go back and rework/redo the CAD, when the AIO version is so much nicer.

Thanks for reading! I hope you all enjoy ^-^
