Great idea! If the LED is bright enough to see during the day, maybe it would make a good angel eye alternative. My lights are sealed, otherwise I'd experiment with this, too.

Mitch, we actually just retrofitted a set of 996's this weekend here and borowed Particlewave's Devil Eyes idea (as he posted above). We mounted the (rgb)LED onto the solenoid casing and it glows quite right. I kinda like the dim'ed effect of the devil eyes more than the angel eyes (my pref anyway). Looks bad as*

We should be able to see them re-installed on the car this coming Wed so I'll try to snap a few pics during both day & evening time. Looked bright in the garage that is for sure
