Cyborg R.A.T. 5 modded with white led's

[MrPiejean]

So next month I'm doing some more work on my custom case/pc to add more lighting and change the general colour scheme to black/white/grey and silver. I'm also planning on buying a mechanical keyboard with white backlighting so I thought why not do my mouse as well?

There was room to hide one led on each side pointing backwards and to tuck the wiring away as well. The wiring is just 2 led's and 1 resistor tucked inside the mouse getting power straight off the usb cable. You can see the wires leaving the inside together with the big red cable for the thumbbuttons.

oh, nice job! been wanting something like this on my RAT

 

got any tips for removing the top shell to get to the PCB? which angle do you pry from? any tabs you should be careful of when prying it off?

 

I'm guessing the white and brown wire are what you added/soldered in? and you just used a regular LED diode?
