Quoted from Butch2099:

There was an amazing looking Last Action Hero at the Texas pinball festival today. Powder coated wire form ramps and pin Stadium lighting.

Those speaker lights would look much better if the painted grills were placed behind the light frames.

Quoted from Steve350f:

I've been working on my LAH doing some mods and cleaning. So far I've changed out the translite to the alt version (no more big head), installed 3 spotlights, speaker lights, color changing flipper buttons, and a cop car. BTW, there seems to be alot of people that hate that clear plastic on the lower left side and are waiting for the Mr Tantrum solution which I think is great, but I decided to install a cop car on that spot and light the interior. See pics. Also, the spotlights make a TON of difference on the playfield. I attached a pic with white arrows where I installed them. Waiting on a Red Ford F100 to install as well.

I would suggest to mount the painted speaker grills BEHIND the light frames if you can. It lights the painted designs up and doesn't wash them out.

Quoted from Steve350f:

If I did it that way, you would see the exposed LED’s. I did one that way and it didn’t look good. The way it is now atually doesn’t wash it out as much as the picture looks.

Yeah, I know sometimes the camera doesn't show what your eyes see. I had a friend with a Speaker Light Kit in his Guns N' Roses (with the light frames behind the grills) and having it on a slow fade made the painted designs slowly appear and disappear in the fading light transition.
