Last night I did an LED conversion for a guy on his Chicago Coin "Hollywood" and it came out really nice.
He originally wanted to keep it mostly "old school" but once we started adding the LED's he really liked the look of it. We ended up changing out every one of the 88 lamps with LED's, he was very happy with it.

Thanks.
I really enjoy it when the owner gets excited about the results. I have done many games that I "personally" think should not have gone the LED route but this one really came out nice.

Ive looked at it several times!,
Id love to use on my site with your permission.
Can you share with others what type of bulb you used?

Sure, that would be fine, just send me a link to it once you add it to your site.

I used the "Ablaze" cool white lamps with frosted tops (from Pinball Life) for all of the GI's under the plastics. Underneath I used the clear tops and mixed in some colored LED's under the inserts. The back box has more of the same, frosted cool white and a few red, yellow and blue frosted LED's to match the back-glass colors.
