Case LEDs Too Strong

My case (in sig) has the strongest LEDs I've seen in any case. The power and hd status LEDs light up half my room at night, and picking something off the floor and having my eyes cross ways with them isn't the most pleasant thing.

Is there any relatively easy fix to dull them down a bit, or do I have to replace them completely?
 
you could also add a resistor in there. drop it drop it down to a lower voltage. course thats about as much work as replacing the thing. Putting a small bit of window tint on it may work too.

Or you could try drawing on the LED with a Sharpie:p
 
smash the damn thing, :p j/k just just sand it, easiest way, or stick some tape on it or something...
 
I use the sharpie method. That way if I ever need a strong LED for anything, I didn't ruin it. You just use a whiteout board marker and color on the sharpie and it will come out.
