Not sure if anyone else has already done this but I've replaced the green LEDs from the Pac-man Color FX2 with white LEDs and it looks so much better now. The green LEDs made everything look terrible and there actually wasn't any color at all.
Since the white LEDs have a higher forward voltage than the original green ones I had to get the power from a different location on the board and the 3mm LEDs had to be trimmed down to around 50% of their original size.
Not a difficult job though and well worth the effort.

Nicely done... certainly a nice mod. Might have to look into that myself.

Do you have any pics of before/after of what you did? That'd be interesting to see what all you had to change out and how you did it.

No I didn't think about taking pics but I'm looking for a Ms. Pac-man as well and will mod that too and take pics then. Anyone know or have one for a reasonable price?
