Shopping out a Checkpoint for a friend and would like to convert it to LEDs. Looking for recommendations on kits or a map of what you've done. Really don't have the time to design my own plan. Thanks in advance.

Still tuning mine but so far..
All flashers under playfield are 8SMD Comet. Blue under BLS, red under release and race, green under checkpoint, any others white.
Flashers on playfield are mix of 5 SMD tower and 8SMD
Blue clear dome 1SMD 5050 under Blue Light Special locations.
Green frosted dome 1SMD 5050 at LAP upper lanes and other green inserts.
The flags in front of ramp have 4SMD lamps.
All the rest are either 1SMD clear or frosted for inserts, Sunlight. The GI is Clear or Frosted Warm White.
The backbox GI is a Comet RETRO bulb which is dimmer than the normal 1SMD.
If you want a specific breakdown of what you need ("x" number of 555) can't really help. I keep LED's here in bulk and just pull from the case as needed.
20201212_124756_1.gifPinheads on this forum from all over the world and the first to respond is 30 minutes away from me . Appreciate the suggestions, but was hoping for a list I could order or a kit that looks nice. Fun pin to play. Middle drop target area is beat up. Might need to fill it in with epoxy and drill new holes. That plastic is also missing. Didn't see any replacements online.
