42-1008 band light cord help needed
#1

I popped off the band light cord before I saw how it was routed on the radio I'm working on. I can't seem to find any images or diagrams showing how this is routed. Can anyone help with a more detailed picture or diagram on how this is routed would be greatly appreciated.

I got my schematics from the above resource, and it has the dial cord routing, but alas, is silent on the band selector light. I think what I may do is instead just use some LEDs to light up the band indicators, since I'm going to convert all of the lights on this radio to LED anyway since the wiring on the existing incandescents is in such poor shape anyway. 

I've got to put together a current limiting device, but I hope to power the radio back up in the next couple of days. I've completely recapped the radio and replaced all but a couple of the resistors as most of them I ran across were out of tolerance.
