Tutorial: How to install lights in your console
Alot of people are afraid to install LEDs because they dont know where to solder the wires or are just plain afraid to kill their 360. Its actually very easy to do. Here is a little tutorial for you to follow.
Items Needed
1. Soldering Iron
2. Solder
3. Electrical Tape
Your wires will either be BLACK and RED or BLACK and YELLOW.
On the picture below you will see where I soldered the black and yellow wires. Now if you have a red wire you will want to solder it where I placed the red dot on the right. All soldering is done on the back of the motherboard. After you solder the wires to the board make sure you cover them with the electrical tape.
Yellow=12v
Red=5v
Black=ground
After you are done you should have something like this.

Who said you wanted to? Its there for people who actually enjoy doing this to their systems. And why are you even looking at the thread if you werent interested? Nevermind! Lets not go off topic.

Its installing an LED, not rocket science. If you have half a brain you'll do fine.
You do have a valid point about voiding the warrenty. 360's like to die at inoppertune times.

Here's an advice on how install lights, cover it in plastic, turn it on for 2 hours, and you'll have some pretty red lights.
