I'm finishing 2 pedals this week, both using PPCB pre-drilled enclosure and those 3mm lampshade from Tayda, and unfortunately, both are just a tad loose in the holes and I had to hot glue the lens. Weird, as habitually, they fit and are solid, and not a big thing to fix.I don't use ones with their own resistor ever so I can't really speak to that. As far as tayda pre drills, you have the pedalpcb ones and the generic ones. For pedalpcb you have 2 options.

Apart from that, I prefer this style of bevel/lens, usually in 5mm, but with the pre-drilled it's an easy fit for the 3mm.
But on the odd build, something different is nice (colored lens; raised lens à la old machinery; chrome conical bezel, etc.).
