Title: USB Port LED w/ Switch
Post by: ZxPwn on June 13, 2009, 09:33:54 AM

Hey guys.

So i'm thinking of completely LEDing my 360 all over, first stop, the front USB ports. Here's a pic:

I'm trying to put an LED just by the flap then add a switch on the back of the 360. I've decided to put all the LED switches @ the back of the 360 so i know where they all are.

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where i should solder the wires from the LED?
I'm pretty new to 360 modding, just flashed my drive :D

i personally havent modded a 360, but for the power you could go to the usb and use power there, or piggy back the ring of light. 1st player would be on when you are playing. and i would take off the face plate and find a good spot and hot glue it to the chassis so the faceplate can go on and come off when needed.

Yeah but i need to know the points on the ROL of where to solder. I'm not very good @ electronics but i'm good at soldering :).

i will look around and post back

here it is https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=28504.0 (https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=28504.0)
and i think you would just run a pos/neg to the led and no switches need, but im not 100% sure. if anyone has done this or something like it help this guy out.
