Looks pretty good like that - wonder if we can do a conversion by finding a bit of red acetate and taking the display apart - mind you if I were going to do that, I'd be inclined to make the green barns blue at the same time - might be worth picking up a second display from the scarpper and have a play.

What's the light in the top right of the same picture that says "main"
for?

bottom bars

On the 1986 and 87 cars the two lower bars were red. I have taken the display apart and transplanted the display out of an 87 car into mine, as I prefer them red.
I don't think trying to change them with acetate will work.
