Does anyone know where I can get lights that look like the ones in the pic?  Five across on the top mid panel. I'm guessing six down on the left triangle.

At a guess, these are the quite hard edged lamp covers.

Here are an example on eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291025729405

And for those in the US:

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.TRS0&_nkw=LES+Lensed+Panel+Lamp+Holder&_sacat=0

This one is a search for just the lamp holder, and it yielded two results: one with the green lens, and one with a red. You can probably also find very close matches at a Radio Shack-type store, or any electronics supply store. They might even have additional colors for the lens. And then there is always the Digikey site (http://www.digikey.com); the lamp holders will be in the Optoelectronics section, Panel Indicators, Pilot Lights link.

Still, your best bet would be to check out the stores so you can actually see what you're getting, to make sure it's the size you need or want, and to see what lenses they have. Sometimes these come separate and you have to buy the holder, and then the lens.
