With all the Lunar Lander parts being reproduced. Control panels, Overlays, Sideart, Marquees. There is one major part thats missing, the Mission light board that mounts under the control panel mission plexi. I wondering if there would be enough intrest to have these reproduced???
 
Here is what im thinking. First the board will be plug and play with the original control panel harness. Size will be the same so it will mount into existing holes. Lighting will be LEDS mounted to the new PCB. Not sure how many leds per mission, enough to get even bright lighting. One of the problems with the original pcb is the light sockets were mounted horizontal. you can see a shadow of the bulb and the lighting is not even. With the leds it will run cool, and the lighting will look bright, without the bulb shadow.

This kind of LED?

Similar to what was there, but you could just mount 2 of them in the space

You might need to have "LED Globes" printed somewhere if using 2 lamp holders, to prevent heat problems if someone fits 2 normal globes one day

Im not sure on what LED's yet. Im testing some different ones in my original PCB. I think I have found the ones I want.

I have received some PMs from people asking what the original PCB look like. Here are a few pictures of the original.
