No probs Jim ..I shall probably do whay I did with The Kryo board and straddle the Blue LED witha pin header ..to achieve this ..
Not the easiest of soldering jobs but do-able with magnification.
Probably void any warranty in the process so will have to be careful lol.

Decided to bend the floppy connector vertical to make the job easier..
and use a block of 3 dual headers for better mechanical stability.
The front 3 in the photo are soldered to the actual LEDs ..and the rear contacts to the series resistors.
Not tried connecting LEDs in parallel as yet with the board mounted LEDs ..but have tested that the 'pretty lights' still illuminate..which they do ..and archiving from the floppy drives still works.
I guess you could call that a win.
Just hope I never have to return it Jim..as I haven't actually driven a truck over it ..lol
