Add a flashing Klingon emblem to your machine. Hooks up to the bumper or right ramp flasher. Attaches to the right return with existing screws. Will be ready by end of week.

Not feeling it on this one, so I'm going to try to provide constructive suggestions. Just the thoughts of one person, so please don't be offended. Everyone likes something a little different, but here goes....
Make each of the 3 segments light up separately and tie it into the Klingon targets would be my suggestion. I'd reshape it to follow the outline of the Klingon symbol as well if possible (instead of the big circle) and see if it could be located closer to the Klingon targets without being distracting in a negative way. Green is usually the color for Klingons. Use 3 green LEDs (one for each section of the Klingon symbol).
If this idea doesn't suck, you are welcome to use it.

I think this is pretty good. I think it'll have to be pretty small to be on the Klingon targets without obscuring the upper ramp shot.

I was definitely trying to light up the segments as you hit the Klingon targets but I wanted something for all machines. The LE has a RGB hookup and I was not going to fool with that. I will continue to work on the reshaping it, was unsuccessful yesterday because of its odd shape. I originally had 3 LEDs in it to do the above. Work in progress. Good feedback. I have an alternate place for it but was trying to fill that empty space on the right.
If you want to fill that empty back corner with something Klingon, why not mod a Hallmark Klingon Battle Cruiser? I'm not sure where they show up in the movies, but they are what's on the screen during Klingon multiball.

+1. A lighted Klingon cruiser in that spot would be great!
Those seem to be a bit pricey compared to the Bird of Prey. I already sell the Bird with 4 LEDs stuffed inside it and it is a laborious chore. Was just trying to make something a little different. I will fix the outline on these and move on.
BTW no one saw something in the picture of my machine that does not belong...

I lit one up but it was a pain to do it. I just have to figure out where I want to put it. This will be ship #6 in my machine.
