Re: [xl7] Oh boy, NOW I did it

Yeah, those things run around when you take the boards out don't they...

Since you've already opened it up (otherwise I would recommend taking it 
to your dealer) here's how to put it back together.  Put the front panel 
face down on something that doesn't push where the knobs go (so you can 
put the knob board back in without it bumping anything).  Then, one by 
one, put the lightpipes in with the two prongs on the left and right 
(horizontal).  Then put the board carefully back down on the lightpipes 
and screw it back in.  I suppose you could put a little blob of 
superglue around the top of the lightpipe ring.  Make sure they all dry 
before you put the board in however.
