Hello TCSS, Long time No See! I am currently building "MY" DL 44 (Screen Accuracy is not important). I want to put 5mm diodes behind the stock slot as the "Shot Counter". To do so, I need to put them sideways. So on to the reason I'm asking here;
LEDs are meant to light out the end, the light that escapes out the side isn't so bright.

How are the LEDs prepared so light comes from the side instead of the end?
