I did this to mine as well. This is an older video, as I have since replaced the original Warm LEDs with two Balrog CW Flashers so the higher voltage from the fan doesn't burn up the LEDs.

Quoted from mcluvin:I'd like to see the fan and clouds light up in sync with the lightning effect on the playfield and backglass. I think somebody has already done it though.

Like the one in my video? You just wire some sockets to the lightning board.
Quoted from ZEN:Did you just use some led flashers in there or 44s? No strain on the circuit? Just curious as I was going to do the same to mine.. looks killer..
Both, the setup kinda looks like PinWillie's pictures above, but here is my current configuration
2x Warm White LEDs each attached to a GI rear lamp (might switch to UV)
2x CT "Balrog" Flasher 44 bulbs attached to the fan motor (higher voltage LEDs)
1x CT 9 stack Coolwhite 906 flasher on first lightning lamp
1x CT 9 stack Orange 906 flasher on second lightning lamp
1x CT 9 stack Coolwhite 906 Flasher on third lightning lamp
1x CT 9 stack Red 906 Flasher on the High Pressure flasher insert
1x CT 9 stack Blue 906 Flasher on the Low pressure flasher insert
The only issue I had was the fan frying LEDs after a while, but the Balrog higher voltage flashers seemed to solve this problem that i had.
