Ghetto Ambilight HDTV


If you've ever seen the Philips Ambilight HDTV you know how cool it looks, and that the soft glow behind the TV actually has a function. If you watch TV or game in low-light conditions, the back light reduces eye strain.

But if you don't want to pony up the money for the Philips HDTV you can get the same effect for your HDTV ghetto style!!!

Thanks to our friends at instructables they show us how to get the same effect on the cheap.

Step 1: Buy Cheap LED Light strips from IKEA.

Step 2: Attach it to the back of your LCD/Plasma/or DLP.

And that's the way you do it!!!

Very cool.. Now would somebody trade a draft pick so we can get an Ikea here in Indianapolis?

For real!! Man... I love Swedish meatballs, Swedish Women, and good damn Sweedish furniture. Hell, 3 decades ago I even liked Abba!

Play some Ace of Base at the RCA Dome... get me more Sweedish!!!

My bum is on the Sweedish!!!! (10 points for anyone who can tell me who said that first!)
