    Ive seen in a few videos on youtube of some m11x having 2 different colors placed on the front like, for example blue and orange. How do i do this? Or can i just not do this, i know in alien fx they are fixed to change color together.

    heres proof:

    It looks like one of the LED's is burned out on the right grill honestly.

    With AlienFX lite you can set the speaker lights to separate colors.

    guys, one of my front lights is botched/scratched.

    so for people with front light problem, would it be possible to get only the front lights replaced or will it require the replacement of the entire palmrest?

    thanks!

    The lights are separate pieces from the palm rest. They should be able to replace JUST the lights.


    The only problem is that you have to disassemble the ENTIRE machine to get to them.
