Does anyone know where I can get the green original xbox jewel, I'm doing a case mod on my xbox 360 and wanted to add the jewel to it. So if anyone knows or has any please let me know thanks!
Original Xbox Jewel
- Thread starter cryos
- Start date
Speaking of shiney jewels A case mod utilizing the xbox1 jewel
Started out with an Elite phat console, painted matt black with chalkboard spray paint: to give it that dark nostalgic original xbox1 days look.
Used a jewel from a spare xbox1 case then splashed on some chemicals to remove the paint and adhesive layers; to give it the clear effect you see in these pictures.
LEDs were green of course so the jewel lit through the case magnificently
Once done, I gave it away as a nice gift for the kiddo on Christmas.
I enjoyed the creation so much.. maybe more than one on the receiving end Christmas day. lol
So long story short, I decided to recreate the mod with a slim trinity console that was lying around in some creepy cluttered corner. Quite literally it's intended purpose as a gift to my younger sister kept in secrete and plain sight for months.

Thought id share a story for my first post. Greetings to all of you! I do hope everyone enjoyed the holidays.
Added some blue LEDs to the RF module then 4 ultra-bright High Intensity LEDs behind the jewel wired up to the dvd drives 12v+ power source.
With my really sharp soldering skills"im joking of course" XD used a huge 40w soldering iron as time was limited and I'm always misplacing tools when scarce for time just minutes before midnight during the holidays... why did i not think of this sooner for her?
Non-the less the creation came to life just in time for it to be placed & seen under the tree.
To make this gift truly special, The jewel used in the "Codenamed FrostBox" was off of my very first xbox original

There's not a way to scrape the original xbox jewel, to have it clear? Cause I think having it clear would work with the DVD rom drive, like on top, then add leds to the rom drive itself? Just, to show thru
