if you want to add color changing LED's you can but them from radio shack they're called RGB's. or if you want them to flash with the music just solder them to the speaker wires although you will then have to give the speaker just a little power :)

I know what you can do with the big space in the middle. You could put your weed in it!

Anywyas, I would replace the plastic box with a metal one, attach the sides with nuts and bolts, powdercoat the entire thing, add some car door molding to the can edges, cut out the "I PWN" logo with a dremal and place an led behind it. Then it wouldn't look so ghetto anymore! I would even buy one but then I'd have to buy an ipod.
