i got bored tonight and still had a few LED's laying around, so i decided to replace the 5 194 backlight bulns with blue led's. it actually turned out really nice, this picture is off my phone so it doesn't do it justice.

what kind of bulbs were they? looks like you have a few "hot spots"

hmm... odd. still seems like there are "hotspots" where there shouldn't be. ah well.. its probably just the supersensative nature of the camera.... to the eye i bet its barely noticible.

when its not quite dark outside you can notice the hotspots a little bit, but once its dark out you can't at all. it mainly the camera
