I see no reason that the Orange modules would be any different than the blue or black ones, I'll bet the white generic ones are the same as well.

Piece of cake!   I just made six of them, I even took the shells down and sprayed them black.  If I weren't so lazy, I'd probably buff off the paint from the Lionel logo and make them look just right.

I guess it's working for sure.

 

 

 

One tip for folks converting multiple modules at one time.  Keep the two halves of the shell together and put them together as one at the end.  When you pull them apart, the glue doesn't always separate exactly the same, so the best fit will be the original pieces together again.
