Is there any CHEAP alternative do the original light bulb for a big red?

I believe this is the last thing I got to fix on my 4 slot.

Already replaced every button, joystick, did all the wood reprinted the entire artwork.

Now I need to fix the light bulbs which none is working.
Game select is fine but neither of the 4 lights on my 4 slot model works.

Is there anything that I could use to easily use to replace it?

People often talk about leds but would it work just wiring the 2 wires that goes to each bulb?

You can find replacement EL "bulbs" at Glow Hut last time I checked. See the last page of this thread here.

I know EvilEmuOfDoom was working on a dimable LED replacement but not sure if this is in production yet.
