DIY: Interior LED Light mod with photos
ok so here is a simple Mod on the interior light that I did on my ISF, so simple that a caveman can do it 
Heres the LED light that I bought off from ebay for 40 bucks
1. I just used an old starbucks card to pop open the plastic white light covering.
2. I got excited and forgot to take a picture of the 3 194 Bulbs underneath the plastic covering, all you have to do is just take off the 3 bulbs, and plug in your new LED lighting board.
3. Once plugged in, just snug the whole circuit board back in and it should fiit just right.
4. Before you put the cover back on, make sure you check to see if the light works.
5. The final results...
here's a video of another person with an ISx50 that had the same light mod

6. For the back lights, you do the same thing, just use the squared circuit board for it and use a credit card or something similar to pop open the plastic covering....it should only take 5-10 minutes

Did you plug it in the center bulb or one of the side ones up front??
Also, which one did you plug into the rear??
As you know, they fade in & out quicker depending which one you selected..
One set fades when the door shuts and the other fades after 15 or 30 secs..

Didn't know that, but I plugged it in the middle one....yes very bright. I'll post the back one later this week....its pretty much the same.
