I used similar LEDs when I modded mine (it was actually part of a complete rebuild of the electronics, almost nothing original remains).
Just make sure you buy the "warm white" LEDs, the standard/cool white ones won't look as good. You can also go with yellow.

Another option which Pixel Props sells, these are more accurate flat-top LEDs: https://pixelpropsstore.com/shop/3mm-flat-top-leds/

Maybe, I just don't want to. XD

The flat ones are easy enough to get, and I think they just arrived. I'm gonna start work on removing the green ones, and soldering on the new ones. I also need to re-wire the connections for the right sequence.
