One of my "dream" radios finally found

Those red and green vinyl sleeves sure add nice color to the bulbs.  Too bad the colored LED replacement bulbs from places like Pinball Life don't seem to come with a screw (type 40) base:

 It's too bad, but you could not use those LED bulbs with the tuning indication system that these G.Es used, maybe with a regular 28 volt tuning light like Rogers and some other makes used but not these. It's one feature I wish that the Canadian G.Es models had, but most seem to have used clones of Canadian RCA chassis, but in a different cabinet.
