Thumbs up Camaro/Firebird logo glow

So I've seen it done on the net, The firebird license plate cover or the Camaro on the front of the car hooked up with a glow system. Does anyone have an instruction set for either mod?

The firebird logo is done by picking up the clear front plate cover, buying a decal for it and painting the clear plastic the color of your car, removing the decal and hitting it with vht for a black car or candy paint for any other car. Then putting a light behind it.

What kind of light would you put behind it? LEDs, possibly with a diffusion sheet? Cold Cathode?
and VHT? ... High Temp paint?

If done right it looks pretty good, then run power up to a switch in the cab, so you can turn it on/off.

I'm about to do it. Watch this. I think this guy is on LS1Tech because if you go to the actual page on youtube he talks about how he did it and got the idea from a Write-up on LS1Tech, but said that the write up page is now down.
Enjoy:
