For the thrusters light source I fashioned a light box which slips into place over the thruster frames and against the rear panel. It has three LEDs housed within a scavenged piece from a LED Flashlight cutdown and framed in with plastic coated with shiny foil. This will then shine through diffuser clear acetate and brass wire mesh at the end of the frames themselves. It'll also have a "flicker" effect which I thought might be appropriate in this case.

The housing is flexible enough that when sandwiched between the hull halves the bowing goes away and it all fits.
