I've searched around and read and read, but couldn't find a cogent answer...

Do LEDs ghost in the 70's Gottlieb EMs?

Is it necessary to buy anti-ghosting LEDs for these machines?

And additionally...

Has anyone replaced 70s incandescents with brighter LEDs and been disappointed?

Anyone used BriteCaps classic pop bumper lights in a 70s EM and liked/loathed them?

Have colored LEDs enhanced the playfield, especially under colored inserts?

I'm going to switch over a machine and would hate to order loads of useless bulbs that go into the trash.

Thanks!

Thanks for those replies! It's an education, for sure.
