Hey all, first time poster here.
I am currently trying to design a lockout buzzer system for a quiz game. I am trouble finding the part I am looking for, and I feel like I might not understand what terms I should be searching.
The part in question is a panel mount LED indicator. See the image on this page(
https://buzzersystems.com/product/10-player-quiz-system/). See how the bulbs stick out above the box, and how you would be able to easily see the light from the side, even at a 90deg angle? I am having trouble finding an LED equivalent of this. I'm 90% sure the part in that image is an old radio shack part -
https://www.ebay.com/itm/145140523364 (Radio Shack part no. 272-0325), but Radio Shack definitely isn't the best supplier these days, and besides, I'm looking for LED, not lamp.
When I search Digikey for panel mount led's with that kind of lens, I don't find what I'm looking for. All the LED's there are nearly flush with the panel, and the ones that stick out a bit from the panel barely stick out at all, and I am not confident that the light could be seen from a distance at a 90deg angle

Am I just searching for the wrong thing, or just not searching hard enough? Any help would be appreciated!
