Fixing a Tacx Neo, how it should have been designed in the beginning

There wasn't as much room between the board and the chassis as I was expecting.  Infact, the board is kind of jammed in quite awkwardly.  The windows have been cut and all the perspex is in now.  Not going to tempt fate cutting the load bank cover off to install a window (for now) nothing really to see and more time which I'm not wanting to devote right now.  Generally the case is fairly knocked around already so you'll have to ignore the finish on the plastic.  

Also, I managed to wrestle out the tiny led at the front.  Nothing too fascinating there however it seems to be a bi colour chip only.  None of the distinguishable marks gave an indication it was an off the shelf thing which was slightly interesting.   Still tossing around the idea of which colours to embed in the perspex.   Current thoughts are;  Blue (because I've got some spares laying around), red, because it would kinda match? shifting red/blue, because of the underlit led which shifts (difficult),  strobing RGB stroke lights (because RGB)
