That's pretty cool. The blue light kinda reminds me of a PS2. Have you seen those replacement cases for the DC?

The STARS DCs are VERY VERY RARE and VERY VERY collectible. If you can touch one for under $500 or so, that's a deal.

I did a pretty poor soldering job on the blue LED in my DC, I need to go back sometime and redo it.

Yeah, there were also official covers you could import (mine is smoke). I'm pretty sure my LED is just one of these.

Check out the link I posted.

ReDsOx5048: If you do a web search you should be able to find a guide on how to replace the LED. But it basically just involves desoldering the current LED and putting the blue one in its place.
