Bitfenix Prodigy Front Panels? Green?

Anyone know if I can find that front panel anywhere? I have the black case and cannot seem to find anything other than white or black/grey trim. When I find fronts like the above they are on cases.

Thanks

Pretty sure there's a Bf rep that hangs around on the forums somewhere.. I couldn't see a problem with ordering one direct?

Oh thanks will give that a try then.

Do you happen to know if its also possible to change the LED colors on the power button? And easily? It's rather bright (and blue) and it would be neat to change it to something that matches my lighting scheme that I am planning on doing (Green).

Do OcUK have any? I had a browse but saw nothing BitFenix branded. Seems like they have options for everything else that a mod for the LED would be there somewhere

Btw I clicked the profile you mentioned but I cant seem to find the option to PM people. Is my post count too low or something?

Try and open a ticket here if you can't PM - http://support.bitfenix.com/

I assume the power button LED is just a small diode, you could replace it yourself if you've soldered before.

Find a previous post he has made and to the right of it you should see "users trust" hit that and send him a message.

For the LED you just need a replacement led, solder and a soldering iron. Just de-solder the old LED and replace with the new one.

It maybe worth asking here:

We may be able to get them in for you.

Thank you for replying 5UB as you/OcUK should be able to give a better response than I can

RobHague · 5 Feb 2014 at 17:51

Thanks 5UB will do that

Slightly OT but LED on the power button? I seem to have 2 LEDs next to the audio out underneath the power button, but no power LEDs. Are they actually the power LEDs and I've just never noticed I didn't connect the header up right before?

Sorry but is that a question?

If you have not connected the wires from the LEDS to your front panel header then these will not be working.

You should have two cables,
one for the HDD LED and the other cable for the Power LED both with a positive and negative side.

Refer to your motherboard manual for which pins to connect them to and be sure to check the positive and negative sides when plugging them in.

Nothing bad will happen from plugging them in the wrong way, just the LED won't light up. Then just reverse them and all will be good.

Only just seen the replies to this, had a look when I took everything apart to change the CPU cooler last week:

I found what I assume is the header for the LED i/o cables on the switch PCB but it doesn't have a cable attached to it. I can't see that I would have took it off/chosen not to attach it so I can only assume it was never there. Given how long I've had it now without even noticing I'm not actually at all bothered.

Reassuring that it's not that I didn't connect the cable out of incompetence, just that it's not there.
