Hey Pandaz, welcome to the site.

Glad to see you are getting into the modding scene.

There are a lot of things you can do to your Xbox to bling bling it out a little. For instance, you can add LEDs to the controller ports. You can also change the LEDs in the eject power board. That's what lights up the eject button. And, to top it off you can cut a hole in the top of your machine and add LEDs and a clear jewel so it glows out the top. Here is what that looks like when done:



Here's one that has the jewel lights done:



I have also done EL Tape at the bottom of the machines for an underglow effect:



I hope this gives you a few ideas Smile

Hi Pandaz and welcome to HQ mate.. Smile

You have certainly found the right place to ask that question.. Mod God has been doing some very very nice mods lately and has pictures displayed all over our HQ forums..

If you need a clear jewel and dont want to make your own original xbox jewel clear then have a look at our HQ Clear Jewels:

HQ Merchandise:
http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/modules.php?name=HQ_Merchandise

anyway, im sure you will meet some coolies here and get your xbox all modded up.. Dont forget to attach some pics when you do.

l8r and enjoy the site.

cheers from down-under,
