    PLCC-2 LEDs

    The needles are color dependent by the light underneath so some people sand the color off the bottom of theirs. I chose to use rubbing alcohol and cotton balls to take the color off and then used acrylic paint to paint mine silver. I have blue lights underneath and it looks great.
