removed the yellow filters from the LCD displays and drew around them on a white ice cream tub, cut them out and installed them. Perfect result :-)

Behind the LCD screens are yellow pieces of plastic as the original orange glow is created by passing red LED light through these yellow plastic filters so when I first installed the blue LED's when they shone through the yellow plastic pieces it turned the glow green which you can see in the original pictures. I removed these pieces of yellow plastic and drew around them on the side of an ice cream tub and then cut them out
