I want to add bulbs under the pop bumpers on my Creech. Not gonna do
the flashing mod, just the lights themselves. I added a candle mod onto
SS, and the candles just had a couple alligator clips that I clipped
onto the GI bulbs, it was easy, and they dim along with the game when
they're supposed to.
Will the same thing work for the pop bumpers on Creech?
I was also gonna put in the teal bumper caps....

I'm curious. Which flash mod were you NOT going to do - there are two.
And Martin's method is simple and fantastic (not taking away from
Korn's). I'd do (well, I did actually) that versus the GI method -
which has been documented in here somewhere.

Like the idea of the teal caps, but don't forget the skirts too!

I'm not sure whos it is, I just happen to have it saved but I'm not
comfortable enough to be soldering the diodes and everything else - so
I thought I'd just do the steady lights under there.....

orange starburst caps and teal skirts is by far the best look.

of course i'm slightly biased since i did this to mine ;)

Someone had pics of the teal caps/skirts, and it made it look like a
lagoon up there....

You can do GI connections for the pop bumpers.

Use 444 bulbs as they are a pain to change.

You will need to staple the leads under the playfield, and solder them
to common points.

Wore them in parallel and connect them to a nearby GI light - the GI
light will have two yellow leads. Might as well solder them, you are
soldering anyway.
