Quoted from TheLaw:

Hmmm...interesting question.. you can just add a socket and tap that bus power there.
I just redid a Catacomb and wondered the exact same thing.

Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:

I plan to add the socket and bulb to mine, as well. Don't have any of the proper socket type currently.

Quoted from JeffThanksYou:

Meant to say how did it work out

Quoted from Skidave:

I'm not a LED guy, but I love a color matched flexi LED from Comet Pinball under my star rollovers. It just gives it a bit more brightness and makes the color pop. Being a flexi, you can backup the LED if it is too bright. Win, win!

Quoted from goingincirclez:

Thanks OP for good post timing... I was prepping to finally rebuild all 5 pop bumpers and saw this. Unlike dealing with the GI connections on pop bumpers to rebuild them - which is a nightmare - adding this rollover lamp was a breeze! My PF had the dimple for the socket. Like two minutes to add the light since I was already in there.
Stupidly enough, I've had this game for over 4 years and have maintained it well, but never noticed that rollover insert was green! Turns out to be a nice "reflection" of that otherwise oddball green insert for the Double Bonus. Anyway, it looks great when lit! Thanks for the suggestion.

Quoted from goingincirclez:

That's an interesting theory. True, that bulb is slightly hard to access with the mech board directly beneath... but I'd argue I've seen and dealt with worse. Plus, the mech board is actually further away from the bulb than the pf itself.
I wonder if they were concerned with interfering with the rollover, or heat causing warpage there moreso than other inserts? OTOH for the "service life" of the game, and with other rollovers being lit on others, probably not. So it is a pretty funny/interesting little mystery why that lone socket was omitted. How much money saved over the production run, maybe things were tight that quarter?
While we're on the subject of modding lights for "easy / free", one mod I did years ago was put flashing bulbs behind the building signs and bass drum on the backglass, and the champagne ladies on the arch

Quoted from xsvtoys:

This link should take you to post 72 in my Bon Voyage thread. Same situation, and this post shows how I added the lighting.

Quoted from xsvtoys:

I think they look very nice, as noted in the post, the picture doesn't really show it that well. It is very difficult to get any picture of lighting that shows what it really looks like of course. The pic of the playfield in my other thread should give a decent idea of how it looks. That bulb complements the rest of the GI and insert lights and I think the whole machine looks conservatively nice. But, keep in mind my Bon Voyage (an EM) is all LED, so depending on your point of view, that either can be great, just OK, or the worst offense in the history of pinball machines. Also for whatever reason, the BV insert LEDs don't flash/flicker much at all while the machine is running. This is unlike my Monte Carlo which is of the same time period, LEDs in that one flash like crazy when solenoids go off. So non-ghosting might be required for insert LEDs, or it can be solved by soldering a resistor across each bulb.
For the rollover project, I ordered those in 2015 and I think maybe a lot of the Comet bulbs have changed (and improved since then). The description I bought was 1 SMD 6.3 AC/DC Supreme Brightness 5050 Super Flex #44/#47 Bayonet - Green. Based on the description, I think it should be this one:
https://www.cometpinball.com/products/1smd-flex
The part number was 1SMBDA49SGFLEX, but I don't know if they use that number anymore.
Here's a slightly different pic of it with the ambient lights turned down.

Here's a photo an entire EM lit with LEDs. Its just hard to believe that they didn't ship it with those 3 green rollover buttons lit, especially considering the dimple holes for the bulb brackets were put in. Cheaped out? Worried about total power draw? Who knows?
