I have two jewel lights for a xbox
The first one is blue and is composed of 4 LED's

The second one is a green cold cathode tube. BULB ONLY! Needs an inverter to work (around 5-6 bucks) and possibly a 4 pin Y splitter (depending on what inverter you get, splitters are around 1-2 bucks)

It would be a good idea to have a clear jewel...don't have one? clear it yourself!!

Now just make a jewel hole.....
How to make a jewel hole
- There are a couple ways to do this
- Use a dremel cutting disc to make a rough hole, then a sanding drum to round it down to a perfect circle.
- Get a 2.5" hole saw drill attachment, and drill the perfect sized hole without any other work!
- With both methods, make sure there is a small ledge left over for the jewel to rest on (about 1 - 1.5mm)
- Many other ways.. it's as simple as cutting and sanding down plastic.
