You can easily make the hole in the case with a dremel saw, then you sand the edges, get a piece of clear perspex and glue it from underneath.

The LED storm can be installed into a normal Xbox. It's only a stick-able LED strip, which can be stuck anywhere inside the case, and is powered by the Xbox's power.

Some strips require no soldering.
EG: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

That's one I've purchased before and all you have to do is plug it into a socket on the motherboard of the Xbox.

In certain cases I've had to solder points on the motherboard.

It all depends on what kind of LED strips you buy... I've never had to solder anything...
