Zusammenfassung:	This document discusses, among other things, backlit apparatuses and methods therefor. In an example, an apparatus includes a backlit apparatus for controlling an end device. A housing has an opening in a front end of the housing. An actuation unit is attached to the housing. The actuation unit is coupled to the end device and configured to at least partially control the end device. A light source unit is disposed within the housing. The light source unit is configured to emit light within the housing. A light member is disposed at the opening in the housing. The light member includes properties configured to transmit the light emitted by the light source unit. The light source unit and the light member are configured to provide backlighting of the apparatus. In another example, a method includes cost-effectively providing backlighting to such an apparatus.
