Ah - its OK - man they light up and look WAY WAY better than before ......Nino, whats happening is that they light up in gameplay for about 3 of the modes and then change when you get a 4th mode etc, but they still flash and stuff as the game plays and they go out in Scared Stiff mode when it is meant to be dark etc - so its all good ( I guess ) ............heres some before and after pics for anyone that hasnt seen this before.

Heres the plain old skull pile - no 'eyes' as such and holes cut for candle flames


Heres how they look when the game is on- they have 2  x flashers behind them that run occassionally - they are white 906 globes.



Heres all my new 'eyes' lit



But then I got the bug and wanted the candles lit - so I got some 3mm yellow perspex and cut it to shape and glued it in, I then wired 2 x orange LED globes to the Beasts Eyes so the candles 'flash'......I then drilled holes in the backboard and glued em in.




And as mentioned earlier , by painting the original  clear flashers with red glass paint I got this red effect.....all in all giving a lot more colour in an otherwise dead corner....



FREE OFFER
I still have some Red LEDS for skulls eyes, some diodes and some yellow perspex left over - so if any other SS owners want to attempt this mod , send me a PM and I will give you these for FREE.....all you need then is wire and some resistors  and a couple of orange LED globes ( about $10.00 all up )and a few hours patience.
