I'd leave them! In fact I'd go so far as to say, I hope the PDP-8/E that
should be arriving on Wednesday already has this mod. If not I'll have to
see about converting it over to LED's while I'm fixing it up.

Word of warning to all, I'll probably have lots of questions starting in a
week or so, as long as I can find room to work, about fixing up a PDP-8/E
and a PC04. On a possitive note, it's coming with pretty much complete
documentation, so I won't be shooting in the dark like I was with my other
PDP-8 a couple years ago.
