    Thanks very much. Its not hard to take apart. Just go slowly and you should be fine. Just be prepared to loose your xbox for quite a few weeks

    Almost finished the painting now too.

    Hi Mate

    I used to solder the lights onto the power points on the motherboard but then I found this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...#ht_343wt_1307

    Makes life so much easier. He has other colours too.

    You will also need an xbox 360 opening tool.

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/XBOX-360-U...#ht_228wt_1039

    Defeniatley a Dremel for cutting and large straight and curved hand files from B&Q (3 in a pck) Thats if you just want to put a window or two into the case.

    If like me you want to do a design then you will also need small hand files from B&Q (5 in a pack I think) for all the little small curves etc.

    I have a spare xbox top lid and a sheet of perspex if you want them. Just ask for delivery costs to be covered. That way you can do most of your modding and still play the xbox

    Let me know

    Cheers

    Chris
