I have done a few DS lite led mods.  Here is a link to the tutorials
http://webpages.charter.net/braineatingalienkyle/DS/dslite.html
Here are a few pictures.





These were taken with the white case on.  I am soon getting a clear shell from nds-central.com I will update the pictures then.

UPDATED:  I added the new pictures

Nice, i was going to do an LED shoulder mod, but i guess you beat me to it :p

[rocky]

Yea the shoulder ones look really cool even without a clear case.  I would have done this earlier if I knew that it would go through the plastic.

[Jabba]

Yeah, Im doing the mod with a phat, and i got some white shoulder buttons, the light goes through them too, i need to get some of those LEDs off ebay, I just need 5 pounds first :p

Make sure you tie your wires for your leds together first like in this tutorial http://www.acidmods.com/tutorials/Soldering.ASP or you will be trying to get the leds on them wires for hours.

Thanks for the tip, I was also gonna do your LED mod for the case, on the top screen, i thought it would be cool if instead of leaving it open i used clear acrylic so the LEDs can be seen, but there is no hole in the case, what you think?

[rocky]

are you saying your going to do this one?
its quite a bit of work getting everything to line up right but go ahead it looks cool

I finally Got my Clear case!

I updated the first post with new pictures.

I am very impressed by the quality of the cases, it are not like the DS phat shell I received in the past.  Shipping took 20 days so I would recommend you buy it from www.realhotstuff.com

That looks freaking cool rocky.

Rocky, nice work! Does the lights ever distract you from the gameplay?

[rocky]

Thanks, no the LEDs are not distracting at all to me.  It looks so much better than the pictures.  Cameras just don't pick up light right.

[sonicwind]

that is some crazy stuff I wish i knew how to do that stuff.

[socket]

I was actually talking to rocky about this... I'm probably just going to suck it up and rip mine apart soon... That just looks too damn cool to not do.  

[rocky]

I have added more leds

I really like how the blue and green look together.
