Quoted from dung:Looking at buying an early alien and wondered what kind of cost am I looking at to upgrade it to use the 1.2 code? Are all the parts currently available?

Quoted from Saber:An update to my above problem incase anyone ever comes across it.
Took hours to nail down but got it all working now.
So a while back I changed the sling leds with timebandit improved LED towers.
On each of the slings there are two leaf switches one at the top and one at the bottom.
As it turns out when the bottom leaf on the left sling when back far enough it would touch the LED tower and for a brief second all the leds on the left would go out. I assume it was creating a short and when this happened it also activated the proximity sensor.
I tested on the other LED towers and there was no problem when the leaf touched them. It was only on this one.
So wrapped a little bit of electrical tap around the top of the leaf switch and BOOM!!! no more short and no more proximity sensor tripping.
Hope this might help someone else.
Yep mine didn't short out but that leaf would get stuck under the top LED so I just put the regular back in....
