Installing firebox LED in Märklin steamer

Side emitting Amber LEDs CA'd to the side of the plastic motor housing. It will JUST clear the side of the shell when it is on. Use magnet wire for wiring as there is no room. Check LED polarities and use no more than a 270 resistor but no less than 100 ohm (~100ma) as you need to make quite a bit of light.
