If you've pimped your PSP up to light blue at the shoulders, Psyberjock's PSP Ring of Light may be the perfect complement that will tickle you pink blue. Except that Psyberjock decided not to produce a How-To of this one because by God, this was the hardest mod he's ever had to do, and he's not going to risk you ending up with a brick in the process.

Unless he gets a lot of requests, he said. On the other hand, he did say, "I doubt I'll take the PSP apart again for fear of having to solder some things again." Okay, that is scary. Request at your own risk.

In any case, his inspiration includes Everett's shoulder LEDs and LED instructions from Llama, so a lot about this mod seems like a one-off on his part (hence, the difficulty). You will notice in at least a couple of the pictures how he had to fit the LEDs within the small dimensions of the UMD tray. It is undoubtedly cool, and the fact that it works (and the PSP is still unbricked) is a testament to Psyberjock's skill with a screwdriver and a solder gun. Heaven help whoever might want to create his own. The UMD "sticks" a bit when ejecting, but he's fairly confident that will pass "as things settle into their new shapes and positions."

And no, there's nothing in this mod that will make three out of four lights glow red when the PSP bricks.
