Hi , i have a few light sheets, the same the fctory used for the neo cabs....Yes, the flat lights that lights the mini marques, they are new and uncut, they come in sheet that you simply cut, one line down the center, then one line across . Know you have 4 light panels. Simply solder the metal strip ,then there you go bright beutiful header art....Oh yea, WHAT COLOR DO YOU WANT factory or funky...I my start selling these in the next few months. I just need to know if people would buy these before i Blow my wad o money...let me know wht some of you would be willing to pay, Yes they will be over 100.00 though. This will be enough for all 4 lights.

Have you tested this yet? I would be interested to hear if this is reality, or a theory at this point. Thanks!

yes ,, the outside edge of the sheet hs the flat metal around the entire sheet....you cut this into four squares leaving the metal on each piece, then light solder them to touch contacts, Oh yeah, bofore installing yo can but don't have to get some plin lminate paper from walmart nd laminate each square,,so you can clen them and not damage the sheets....

If this is a goer, and the panels work fine. there would be a lot of interest I guess.( if the price is not over the top)
The panels seem to have a limited life span, as if the electro chemical light emmission properties expire with use and/or time, many mvs cab owners seem to have problems with at least one of the panels not lighting up.
Good luck on the venture.

ps. None of the panels work on my two 6 slots.
btw. How are you testing them, apart from plugging into a cab, you would need a dc-ac convertor.

I am interested in a set of 4. Can you take pics of this whole process? I would like to see what i might be getting before I commit.......that's the bussiness world.....thanks! Hope this works out to....I only have 1 active panel.....

Is there a way to wire the panels into the selector switch for the games so that way the panel lit is the game being played? It might eliminate all the undue use on the other slots when they don't need to be lit? Just an idea.......thanks....

What were these panels originally designed for, seems coincidental or just good luck that they are the same size as the cab panels ?
