    Im givin you props...keep up the good work.

    I didnt get into the hard-core, non-off-the-shelf modding until now (after purchasing Maximum PC's Guide to Extreme PC Modding) frankly because of the fear of messing up and loosing an expesive piece of equip. YOU on the other hand have taken a big step. Congrats and keep going with it! (thats the most important part besides enjoying what you do)

    Great mod for a first attempt. I still haven't taken the plunge for my first mod (although there is something in the works) but I am going to change all my horrid green LEDs to nice Blue ones. I am currently wondering whether there is way to open up my monitor and replacing the LED in there.
    Back to your case. I really like that red lit window. It reminds me of the Y2K bug by Mashie. The sheathing of the tubes look like the veins of The Bug's eyes. Hope to see some more from you in the future.
    There is no other choice.

    Good start man!

    I would suggest some mesh sleeving instead of splitloom but thats just a personal opnion since i really don't like split looom. I used it though on one of my first modded cases so have to start somewhere .

    Anyways keep at it
    Mesh makes the world go around!!!!
