Xbox 360 Ring Of Light Colour Mod - Tutorial - Custom Blue LED ROL

A quick tutorial on how to change the colour of your Xbox 360's ring of light. In this video I show how I change the original green LEDs to a much nicer blue.
This mod requires some soldering a steady hand. Don't try it if you're no confident with a soldering iron. I take no responsibility if you mess up you console trying to do this.

LEDs used in this video are 0603 SMD Blue. You can get them on ebay.

Thanks for watching! :)

Some people should not be allowed to do SMD soldering....

@TheNicholasBrothers ?

Nice but I have a question:

The regular LEDS are green and if you get the red ring of death they turn red. Now since you replaced them, if you got the red ring of death, what color is it?

Thanks for the tut...Very Helpful

@BoomBrush it will stay blue i think. but it isnt too difficult to find out if your xbox has the rrod ^^

@TheZevra the red leds are part of the green ones....wtf? and it would either be blue or nothing at all.

[DecimateModz]

Best tut I've seen so far. You're the first to suggest the flux and solder bread, neither of which I knew existed. This method would have made the process a lot easier the last time I did it.

Also, the modded ROL just has the new LED color. It really doesn't matter if it's red or not, an error message still comes on the screen and you still get 3 lights signifying the error. If you have an RROD, you don't need the LEDs to figure it out.
