Can you move the strip to the bottom of the set so it may not be so noticable?
Had any of the lenses come out when the strips were posted to you. It could be that they have not been correctly replaced over the led they came off.

Thats it. The ones that fell off and replaced were the culprits. Is there a proper way of putting them back on? I aligned the three dots on them. Do you glue the bottom or sides of it? I glued the bottom with super glue but didnt cover the led itself with glue.

I see, yep that would do it, didn't see mention of any lenses falling off. Align them the same as the others.

I dont use super glue as it tends to cloud up the lens after a while. I use glue that is used to put together model cars and airplanes. Dries quick and clear. Small drop on each of the 3 points. Even if you drop too much, it dries clear.

Just did everything that was in the video and can still see the outline of them. They must have to sit perfectly.

I noticed that when i popped them off that they clouded. Whats that stuff called for the model cars?
