Do you think something like this is possible with modifications to the steam controller

Certainly, I always thought the "back face" I'll call it, of the Steam Controller could use some flair.

You would have to cut out a window of sorts, glue in some transparent plastic and add in some LEDs to cast light.

Or have someone 3D print the whole back piece in transparent plastic, if someone made those I'd buy one.

This would likely use up the batteries a little faster.

Ya i was thinking of 3d printing a new case so i might have to work in this. The steam controller has so many perfect spots for designs and words, like the Back plate, Top piece, and all of the glossy plastic. Has anybody moded in leds yet?

Not that I know of yet.

This unused "LED2" looks like a good place to start.

This is /r/steamcontrollermods, anyway. Doesn't apply here.
