Does anyone know where i can find a pic tut on how to correcly put in controller port leds. And 1 more ?, can i cut the extra el underglow strip, will it still work?

thanks for the reply, but the tut is not on there, i recieved the controller port led mod from divineo.com
this is what it looks like, and i have no the slightest clue where to put it.

Unusual.....I thought you would of bought your own leds and wanted to know ow to install em. Thats one weird led setup.... Open up your xbox and get your controller ports out an take off the metal casing on top. Hot glue two leds in on each side of the ports (where you can see through to the other side). Buy a
Y-Splitter Molex cable thing, and hook it up
Sam
Someone else could probably give better advice

thanks man,

there are only 4 leds, so just drill one hole in the back of each port for one led, hot glue the led in place in the hole, and plug in the molex connector. Then watch your ports glow

WEll thanks sam, and canada here is a temp look at it(by temp i mean the EL kit is going to be replaced.. and a dvd window with green glow)

I personally would have gone with 2 leds in each controller ports.. its way more effective.. and cooler looking

yeah i want to do that but i dont know how to manually wire them, like get the power off the mobo, or wiring, but if there was a tut or someone walkme through i could. What else should i do people. Give me some ideas!
i actually think i have an idea... I am going to buy a couple sets of these http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f385/jma...nt=IMG_2392.jpg

and make a sick design on the top... well its green lights, can anyone guess the design on top?

controller port led mod-
Check this out!!!!!!!!!!

yeah, this is definitely the way to go.
it's brighter and more noticeable.
IMHO it's easier and faster than hooking up the leds with wire and drilling holes in the port casings.

Those controller port lights would look sick! Go for it!

Would a 100 0hm resistor work with the 2 leds or does it _HAVE_ to be a 47 0hm? (Sorry, I'm buying 100 x 100ohm resistors tomorrow and was checking if I need some 47's as I might do this mod too!)

CC.

100 Ohm will be fine. What color are you planning to use (to know forward voltage)?

What colour (code) resistors? I dunno yet, I only just thought about doing it then

The last ones I got were code: Brown-Black-Brown

Check PM...don't want to steal jmac's thread

yeah guys.... ....I am actually getting a couple sets of these... Then i will make a maryJ leaf on top... 5 sets to be exact so 60 lights.... What do you guys think about that?
