I recall seeing info about converting coin door lights to white LEDs.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
thanks

I dunno if this is related to what you're thinking about.....
The coin door wedge light bulbs can easily be switched with another wedge fit light bulb OR a wedge-type LED. Wedge type LEDS can be bought here www.superbrightleds.com (cheap and pretty fast shipping). Hope that answers your question.
I replaced my dead coin door bulbs with white LEDs. No conversion necessary.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I remember seeing someone who soldered an LED to a small piece of circuit board so it could be plugged into a socket. That's what I _was_ looking for but this is FAR better.
Do you remember which ones you used?
I found this page...

I purchased 4 "Single LED Wedge Base Bulbs" and 2 "4 LED Wedge Base Bulbs" (all 12 volts, found on that link, http://www.superbrightleds.com/1157.htm ) and all work excellent, although the single LED bulbs are all you really need. Have fun!
