LED swap
So it's finally done! After a massive amount of testing various LEDs, I've gone with these ones and I think they look pretty good. Special thanks to @Acree for some helpful disassembly tips.

Nicely done. I wouldn't have changed the needle LEDs, or at least found some clear needles, but other than that, good job!
That redline is a ***** isn't it? -Acree

But if you can point me to where I can buy clear needles, I'll most likely buy some. The redline was ok... I just photocopied the face and used that as a template. It was still a bitch cutting out the cellophane perfectly though. Cheers |
