Lamp Questions - GI and Lamp Matrix

Hey everyone,

So I just got a BSD and TAF and want to do some LED conversions (TAF is already partially converted). I typically prefer to do these myself versus buying a kit. Have a couple quick questions:

1) I just realized I've only done LED conversions to Stern machines. When pulling the Lamp Matrix for BSD and TAF I noticed it does not list if they are 44 or 555 bulbs (like Stern's do). Are all of the lamps on the lamp matrix 555 bulbs? If not, is there a way to tell which are 44s vs 555s?

2) Just being lazy here, but is there anywhere to get a "map" of all of the GI bulb locations? I know I could just look at the machine and try and figure it out, but wasn't sure if there was a resource anywhere for GI locations on pins.

Thanks!!!

You have the game ? Pull some bulbs and look. Count them up.

Well GI you can count from the bottom. Just do a rough count and then add a another 25 pack on top of that.

Yea I think I got it figured out from photos of teardowns on the internet. The game is still fully populated and playable. Im just awaiting for all the items for my shopping to come and didn't want to take the game out of commission yet since its still getting play in the meantime. I was just surprised there wasn't a map of the GI bulbs like there is in the manual for the controlled lamps rubbers flashers ETC. I was also ordering a specific individual light set so I wasn't looking to over order too much on any particular bulb.

thanks for the responses
