Hiding Drives in black case + Digidoc question

[Limey6413]

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone knew how to do the mod i just saw at www.pcmutants.com, on the first page, the drives appear to be covered by a drive cover thingy. I was wondering if there was anything specific that needed to be done to make that work.

Also I was wondering if I wired my Cold Cathode switch wires into a fan connector and hooked it up to a fan channel on my digidoc5, would it be able to handle it? Thanks..

This guy had an excellent mod and then he screwed it up by painting the drive door black. Why? It would've been much better looking if he would've done it in the aluminum color.

Thanks for the link, however, that isnt what i meant. If you go to pcmutants.com, you'll see what i'm after...

also how about using the digidoc for the lighting?

Thanks,

I actually dont like the steath mods they look a bit fiddly

Well, thanks to those who helped, thanks to that article, I now have all my drives in and "stealthed".. hehe it looks very cool, and after a few minutes tweaking, they all open and close perfectly. My roomate thought my mods looked great, but couldnt understand why I was willing to not have any CD drives... suprised him a lot when i ejected one..hehehehe
