Sorted my disc-swap button issue but......
My console has a hole where the button is, i have to reach in with my finger to press the disc swap button, is there a 3d-printed button or something I can buy so that it functions like a proper button?

You can buy tray inserts.

I do know on the prototypes he did have planned a separate remote disc swap board you could solder to the device and use remotely, but I think it never released as there are much more elegant ways to do it now. Also, there are mods I seen that people added to the gdemu to fix disc swap.
Anyways, check these posts on Reddit, it looks to fix the missing button issue on those clones.

Also here it shows that you can mod your own OLED screen to GDEMU as well and also goes over the remote I mentioned earlier. But not sure what all needed. He lists parts in the post.

I wish we saw more modded systems with these screeens as they are cool as hell. OG Xbox has screens on certain systems with Xecuter mod chips.
