Is it possible to get Limo Tint (80+) and then put a couple bright LEDs or a white CCL on the inside and control it with a switch to enable/disable viewing of the inside of your case?
 
i did a similar thing with my old case

i tried using auto tint on my existing clear window and it would never turn out how i wanted.

i ended up replacing the window with some tinted plastic from usplastics.com and it worked pretty damn good.
 
theres a tint out there that is used for home windows i cant seem to find it but my friend has that on his case and it looks pretty damn good
 
Be careful using blue lights behind the tint as the effect might not be as desired.
 
that makes me sooo [H]ard...
Im sort of tempted to buy an acryllic case now since they are quite cheap on newegg...
 
I did this with some limo tint (I think it's 5% light that gets through) and two red CCFLs. It dims the light a lot (it almost looks like stuff is glowing instead of being lit up), but you can still see inside nicely. It's a cool effect.
