Exchange the original LEDs
Hi,
is it possible to change the original LEDs to other ones (on other colors)? |

Blue/green disk led
Last year I removed the right part of my disk LED on my A1200 with a dremel tool. Carefully I drilled away just enough to fit a standard 5mm blue led, but still keeping the top intact. That way I could then apply the instructions from Doobreynet, to show activity in the PCMCIA port.
I'll see if I have any pictures left from the "procedure". |

Naturally you don't have to use the original LED's light diffuser if you don't have any existing leds, you could just cut + sand down a piece of perspex. |

Here are some fresh pictures. I couldn't find the old ones. And I also have to correct my statement from above; I used a 3mm LED (Not a 5mm)

Thanks, Eriond. They're very instructive.
