Hey All! I was thinking about putting a LED in the little Apple below the screen in my Key Lime iBook. I also want to make the Apple logo on the top back of the screen glow brighter. Any ideas? I looked for a forum discussing this already, but to no avail. I need to know also, what type of LED should I buy, how/where to wire it, and the such.

CA$H, are ya out there? Any input?

I know that there is room for a LED on the bezel below the screen, and I have already removed the metal covering the Apple. It almost peeled off, like it was pre-scored for removal (manufacturing process, or Apple idea that wasn't included? who knows). I also would like to put a LED under the power button if that is possible. Well, I welcome any input. Thanks in advance for your time and effort.
