    Quoted from jeffsgames:

    I wish there were a game-specific guide that we could reference. I have a WCS I want to convert to LED. I'd like to see what others have done. I know Cointaker does a kit but they don't list what specific bulbs come with it. Also collectors may have some specific recommendations for each lamp (use ### for pop bumpers, ### for the goal flasher, etc.). Also indicate for the games if there are custom ROMS available to improve the performance of the LEDs (and where to get them). Then finally pics would be awesome!
    I'm starting with the backbox. Seems most recommend the Super bright cool white Cointaker LEDs. Anyone color match or is white the best color?

    Whether to use cool white or warm white depends on the colours on the backbox. I prefer warm white all around as the cool whites look far too blue, while the warm whites appear close to the incandescent bulbs.

    Something to keep in mind is that if you use some of the super-bright LEDs, they do put out heat approximating a #44.
