I just bought this case from newegg and have the new computer (in my sig) in it and i love the case but a few things make it not over the top which I want to make it look. Here's a pic of the case.

I was wondering if it would be cool because i only have one cd rom in this badboy and one floppy drive to take out the bezels that are taking up the extra space and since all i have in that area are extra psu cables that arn't being used to take each one out and in the plastic part screw two holes on each side of each bezel and in the hole put a small blue led and then behind the bezels hook it to a power cord to hook up to the psu and make all the plastic bezel glow blue....The power and reset buttons don't light up either and I was thinking of doing this to them as well but in the back. On a scale of 1 to 10 how hard of a mod do u think that would be? I don't plan on doing this till later this summer because I am at college atm and no access to the tools that I would need.

First, let me congradulate you on what has to be one of the longest run on sentences I have ever read here on the forums... :)

As far as the complexity, I would give it a 2 or 3. Very little modification is really needed and all the space for the mod is really already there. The lights will be rather inexpensive and the overall change in appearance will be minor. It is a step in the right direction nonetheless... I thought summer was over, but maybe you are in a different part of the world. Not to be a jerk, but why is this thread really created? Just curious... Otherwise, rock on...
 
wow you really need to rewrite your post. that mod is around a 1 or 2. it will take no more than 30 minutes.
 
clarification....?

you want to put LEDs in the bezle pointing out, or in the bezle so that the plastic has a glow to it?

you want to put the LEDs in the bezle or in the bay blanks (the things you remove to put in a drive)

either way if your ok with a little wireing, and you can drill the holes well, its not an issue its easy.

thins link should give you some usefull info (and its a good site check it out)

good luck and happy modding

I am kind of like an Olympic judge. Knowing that this mod does take some time (as you mentioned would take no more than 30 minutes), I have to leave judging space for something that would take no time at all (being a 1). Like say, an 80mm door window mounted case fan converting to a LED 80mm door window mounted case fan. Or applying a sticker to the case... :)
