Default DX3S Backlight Mod - Anyone still doing this

I had a DX3S that I had the backlight mod done on and it was nice. The guy that originally did mine is not doing them anymore. I searched for a thread here and saw one guy doing them, but PM's have gone unanswered. I just picked up another DX3S in a trade and would like to have it done to this radio. Do you guys know of anyone that is still doing these at a reasonable cost?

It was a pretty easy 20 bucks mod.

This is what I used:
