MikeOMG Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) EDIT - RESOLVED WITH VERY EASY MOD, SEE NEXT POST PICS BELOW!!!! original post: need advice on where to get replacement led strip for this case.. my strip got fried and corsair support says they cannot help due to user damage... the part i need is as follows but i cannot find a supplier, i got the case from newegg and they said they do not carry this replacement part... help! https://www.corsair.com/ca/en/Categories/Products/Accessories-%7C-Parts/PC-Components/Cases/Carbide-SPEC-OMEGA-RGB-Front-Panel-LED-Strip%2C-RGB/p/CC-8900286 Edited March 21, 2019 by MikeOMG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeOMG Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share Posted March 6, 2019 Hey guys FYI I was able to repair this myself The LEDs inside this case are identical to the ones in the LED expansion strips... And the lighting node pro can't even tell the difference.... So I took the plastic piece off 3 strips, folded them to the right length and stuck them on top of the fried strip... Worked like a charm, perhaps even brighter than stock because the LEDs are now raised closer to the strip! I would imagine any SPEC case owners could switch to the RGB strips using this trick also... Very easy to do!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennyMcMemer Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Could you send me a link for the RGB strip? I have a normal Spec Omega and I'm tired of seeing only red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
