Great discussion with some awesome ideas and fixes. Thanks to all that have contributed so far. Should be a very useful thread for WOZ owners.

It's a shame if it can't be corrected via cranking up the LEDs in the software. Stock from the factory it looks far too dark especially for a newer machine. I hope that the JJP team may be able to come up with a simple solution that will shed some light on the issue. In the meantime, making sure the LEDs and tubes are aligned properly seems pretty darn critical.

2 or 3 well placed spot lights would of totally prevented this issue in the first place. A wide body if not well illuminated by GI can become a bit of a black hole. Hopefully their next release addresses this. The great thing about pinball is the community that comes up with solutions to issues like this so we can take care of it and get back to enjoying pinball. Please keep us posted on any kits you come up with markmon/pinballbulbs.

Quoted from markmon:

On paper, purple sounds ridiculous. You have to see the installation to understand.

I agree, purples especially the 2 LEDs that don't ghost look great in some spot lights. That said, everyone has different tastes. I have tried both and in some pins prefer to have the 2 main playfield spot lights be white for better visibility and less color saturation all over the place since I use colors in some of the other GI areas.
