Default iPhone 4, 4s apple lighted mod

Has anyone just checked out this iPhone 4 light mod being sold by kogadget for $42? I personally just ordered it because it could be snagged by apple and never be out there again, but apparently it's a full install kit including a new back plate with a clear apple logo with included instructional DVD on how to perform the mod and screw driver set. The new back plate can also be a Steve jobs tribute(one I've picked) but go over to kogadgets Facebook page and you can grab this awesome deal! It'll void your apple warranty of course and I don't know how completely great this is but for $40 I can take the chance. You could get a iPhone lighted back logo like the MacBooks. Which is the coolest thing in the world.

I was thinking about getting one, but I think I am going to wait to see how it affects the battery life of the phone first.

I'd grab it while it's at this price, as of every case I've heard of it, it has no major effect on battery life. It's just a tiny lightbar. It's completely and easily reversible too by the way.

I have been considering it. There isn't going to be much more time left to get before Apple shuts them down...

How is the mod done ? Do you tap wires between the battery and board on the prongs ?

I bought one today even though I don't currently have an iPhone! I sold my iPhone 4 to get the iPhone 4S and then sold the 4S to get the Galaxy SII! However, I have been missing my iPhone so badly (even though the GSII is a great phone) that I am planning to add a line to my account to get one again after the holidays. I think this mod looks the best on the black phone so even though both my previous iPhones were white I will get a black one this time. I can't wait to have an iPhone again-- with a super cool mod to boot!

Yes it's for the Verizon iPhone 4 and the 4s only. Not the AT&T iPhone 4.

It says that's exactly what it does! It'll light up for 15 seconds. So awesome

And I agree it'll prob look better on a black iPhone although I'll be using it on my white 4s. I just prefer to white color too much to get the black.
