Well mostly. I didn't want to spoil my lens with holes for the wires.


Its alive!

Now i just have to figure out a way to mount the lights (and make the other one, heh) and re-mount the screen with these in mind. Currently its just sort of hacked into place. I really want to be able to swing one out of the way to remove the screen better...
I would first play with distance from the screen before making anything final, at least if you cant dim the LEDs.

Good thinking, a lot of people overlook needing to make the screen easily accessible/removable.
