If you want sound reactive follow lordnico's tutorial (if you have a multi-meter just find any 5volt power source that you feel comfortable soldering to, If you don't want sound reactive, here is what I did. I soldered to the right speakers +. I soldered the wifi switch like in lordnico's tutorial, and - led to the dead pin on the wifi switch. So they are solid on/off not sound reactive. But to get them to light at first you need to move the dpad or hit a button and make a sound. (Like the direct connect sound reactive method requires) Hope that helps.

The dead pin is the one furthest to the right when looking at the pins. (like in the tutorial says) You think it's ok to use the magnetic wire as long as it doesn't touch anything else, but the anode and cathode pins.
- I have mine running off of the right speakers + (anode) connection and grounded to the dead pin of the wifi switch.
- I'm running 2 blue led's on that right now. (plan to add more when my clear case comes in.
