Have any of you done any flashy case mods? 

Ever since I bought my case I've really wanted to add a couple UV lights inside of it.  Almost all of my crap is UV reactive and I'd love to see what it looks like with all the stuff in there, if it is too much I can remove it and be out 12 bucks.  I' also might add a blue light in there to complement the current one coming from my fan.  I don't want anything too flashy mind you.  But considering the size of my case having a blue light on just one side looks uneven and hardly lights the case.  And I know UV light is not going to make it much brighter. 

The problem is all the cold cathode stuff that I have seen sounds pretty crappy.  Every cold cathode item they sell on NewEgg has a reviewer stating how the transformer went out after a while and caused the room to fill with electrical smoke.  One of them even started a fire inside the case!  As far as I can figure I don't need a fire inside my computer.  Have you found a solution to this potential problem?  Do you know of any good brands/items?

No help here, I'm afraid.

I covered the inside of my case with sound dampening materials and cannot see anything through the window. That's about as much case modding as I cared to do.

What'd you cover it with Laby?

Good question. It was sticky on one side and very thick on the other.

Let's see...

Ok, found it. It was from this company, however I did NOT pay anywhere near that price. I only paid $40 for that same kit back in the day. http://www.acousticpc.com/acoustipack.html
