Cute. Reminds of some of the custom cars we see around here. Kustom K2 
-- could be a trend.

Alpena lights I got from Autozone.  It lets you see where the buttons are in the dark.  Its a totally useless mod but the effect is neat.  I sourced power from underneath the rf board where you plug in the battery or amp depending on what you have.  They come on when you turn on power supply before you turn on radio.  The instructions say they draw .08 amps, I have not confirmed this. I have 2 youtube videos one is a picture slideshow and the other is a short video.  My youtube name is A390652.  The videos are titled k2backlit in action and k2 backlight details.
