My brother was checking out my lighted Panny 3-piece and asked me if I could do it to his little GE. Of course the answer was " :yes: "
I'm really pleased with how it came out, considering it was a total "shoehorn" job. It really changed the look of this little radio.
I do have one question. I searched the forum for quite a while and couldn't find what I was looking for: I'd like to know if anyone has a slick method of re-applying the tuner decal (adhesives, heat, etc). It was starting to go already, and I completely removed it to do the mod. I have it precariously tacked with the old adhesive for the purpose of the photo.
Thanx.

Look cool !!! I just use Elmer's wood glue. Its Strong dries clear and cleans up easy on excess amount and easy to remove after dry :thumbsup:

I love the look of Blue LED's. It really gives some class to this little GE :thumbsup:

Bill is dead on with the Elmers glue....the best part is, if you need to take it apart again, you won't destroy it like if you used super glue or gorilla glue.

Would you guys recommend using Elmers to glue down wires inside a box? When I was fixing the speakers of my Aiwa CS-J88 I had to pull up a bunch of wires that were glued down to the frame. They had used that soft black glue-type stuff to hold them in, but I'm not sure exactly what kind of adherent that is and I don't want to use anything too strong. Elmers sounds like it might be a good solution.

I find hot glue to be the best for wires. And if you want to keep the factory look inside the box, you can get black sticks at hobby shops.
