BLUE CATHODES
Finally, I replaced the green Power LED and DVD drive LED with blue LEDs.
I've also added 2 blue cathode tubes. One is on the inside to shine through
the Apple logo cutouts, and one is on the bottom to shine from under the feet.
The lights have an on/off switch underneath, near the left rear foot. |
