[Techtoolslist] Designing a 9010 replacement LED display?

I was looking at my 9005 and grumbling because the tube is missing, then 
I pulled out the 9010a service manual and you know, it looks like it 
would be a pretty easy fix to replace the tube with 32 digit 
alpha-numeric LEDs of the correct size on a small PCB and all that would 
be needed is to replace the UDN6118 fluorescent drivers with suitable 
LED drivers and find a place to grab 5V and ground and then mount the 
new display to the board...

Maybe it would work?

Anyone interested in poking at the KiCAD layout? I have no free time, 
but I know there are folks out there looking for a solution to bad or 
weak tubes...
