Using a similar technique as with installing LEDs in controller ports (the wires are the oppisite on the controller plugs that connect to the system) I was able to cram two Leds that change 5 different colors and have different patterns. I connected them in parallel using a 100 ohm film resistor inside one of those old semi transparent dark colored controller plugs for those big old MS "Duke" controllers. It turned out quite good actually. Im still working on getting all the parts for the Xbox im working on now. I bought an LE crystal case and im filling it with those flashing muliticolred leds. I want it to be a "seisure box".

Notice the light around the eject button is white and not green. I can set it to white, pink, or red, or cycle through them all.

Was it flasing red and green or did you just change the settings in the config menu to change the color?
