Having just acquired my LW3, as many do, it had a broken Police Light Cover.

You can't buy genuine, or I certainly can't find them, and having seen this post, I made my own!

The lens cover is 100 disc CD/DVD spindle cover. A 50 spindle is not tall enough.

Fortunately it is constructed from a soft plastic (not brittle) allowing me to cut it down by 45mm using household scissors.

I then used a BLUE permanent marker with a 5mm chisel tip using long continuous strokes to 'paint' the entire cover.

I did contemplate using spray paint but don't think it would have remained translucent. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It's a good temporary fix, until I find either a genuine or a better option. :D
