Haven't finished this yet. I drilled three 1/4 inch holes just to the rear of each vertical bottom end (starting at the front vertical) at the bottom of the chrome center piece centered side to side. This way they don't show. Hardest part was figuring out where to drill the holes. If you screw up drilling the holes you just ruined a piece that retails for $169.00. These holes accommodate the clear lens LED holders. I used three Radio Shack yellow LED's 276-301. Ordered a bunch of resistors tonight to tweak the brightness. The three LED's draw .090 amperes at rated value, so I ordered three watt resistors.
