Are there any Kicad Modules for the Cherry MX switch floating around (for use in making a pcb)

See the downloads from http://www.key64.org/downloads
I'm sure they are others too.

I think many of those are by me originally. I have since made new ones located here https://github.com/BathroomEpiphanies/K ... d-Tutorial I probably should update that in the new KiCAD format as well, but that may still not be a stable release.. It's much nicer though.

bpiphany, I hope it is alright but I updated them into the newer kicad format and made the footprints available in a github. Let me know if you are ok with me sharing out the link to that, wanted to make sure before I share the hard work you originally did.

All I've updated and added a few things and converted it to KiCads new pretty format. It is all wrapped up in a github repo.

stormbard, how exactly do you use the led footprint.

Also where do I find a lib with an MX with LED?
