You can get the RAM chips from the old Pc/laptop RAM modules, upgrage can really boost up the performance. Ambit 256 badly needs a RAM upgrade because it has a SPI cheap and it has some serious memory leak issues.
I'm gonna get some old RAMS from the market and will check the compatibility. Though there is no advantage of going above 16MB but still I will try to get the highest capacity.
Modding the lights wont be hard, you just have to put new SMD type LED's, which are quite common and easily available. Blue LED's operates at higher voltages and takes higher current, so make sure your power circuit of the modem does not come under stress. You can sort that out by playing with different values of resistors.
Best of luck and do post some pics when you do the mod
