Just did mine the other day. IMO one of the highest-impact, lowest cost mods going...if you DIY. I didn't go with any LED's, mostly due to long-term concerns, but I did highlight the rings in red to contrast with the black lenses, gun metal housings, and carbon fiber accents (including the landing strip. I think it came out even better than I anticipated.
Thanks for the write up on how to open these lights. I wouldn't have done it without you. Now I just have to figure out how to give some rep!

Those look Amazing! I cant wait to do mine. Very creative Did you just use some of the 3M carbon (sticky) and cut it out so it would fit. Loving the look.
