Stern, 2013I was finding all the white inserts pretty boring. I am also surprised how dim some of the insert led's are.. like the big 4 above the picks.. those are import indicators and you can barely tell they are lit.. I added some color to them so I can at least look for that. I added some light blue to all the electric inserts, and color matched the fuel gauge and fuel target LED's. Purple at the mystery insert. I am pretty happy with the results.
Quoted from Jeff_PHX_AZ:FUEL inserts, were they the most difficult to install? Did you tape them gels together in the area. Whats the link to get the gels? Looks good.
I bought a ton of them off Ebay, books with 1000s of different color gel papers, they are all over the place and cheap.

They are all pretty easily accessible. I used tape for some and just used the light board to clamp down on some. You can get gels all over. I got mine at a local photography shop.
Quoted from RobertWinter:This is exactly the reason I prefer socketed bulbs over LED boards.
Yeah I am contemplating installing some sockets on those four inserts above the picks by the flippers. There is room to do it.
