The_ALEX_ELLIS_Channel so am I. They really don’t need modding at all. At least they’re still intelligent as they are Magnetek lifts but they are still not as good
The new hall indicators on these are awful - they do not display the directional at all (unlike the original ones), and they even replaced the indicators on the generic lifts that were installed in 2006 (the old ones used to have flowing direction indicators). It's probably only a matter of time before the interior of these are modded seeing as the whole centre is slowing undergoing refurbishment.
Interesting fact - the new design of the area surrounding the lifts appeared first on the Upper Mall outside the generic lifts (presumably as a prototype), and the paneling was just cut around the existing call button and indicators (the call button was set back about 3 inches into the wall!). This was then completely redone (with the new fixtures) when the rest of the landings were modernised. The Otis 2000 hasn't had this treatment, presumably because of the plans that are currently in motion to alter the layout of that part of the centre.
DEVASTATED to hear about the modernization of this this year!

Mattyeah101 The exterior indicators and buttons were only changed because the area surrounding the doors, etc. has been refurbished.
