This is a neat mod if you have sith sabers with the guarded switch instead of the AV switch. I did this with a little paint, 4 O rings from the hardware store, and some super glue. Just add the O rings 2 on either side and put superglue between them, then pinch them together in the back to get that eye look on the front. You can paint the area around the button whatever color you like, gold or red or orange would all be cool and it gives you an evil Sith eye.

Thanks for your comment. Its probably not for everyone and definitely more geared towards Sith, but I just like to show off the little fun things I do.

Yo that's cool. How did you not get paint inside the switch though? Or is it all kinda covered for you to be able to do this? I'd be kinda nervous though. I don't have steady hands for stuff like this anyway x.x

Its pretty well covered, just use a small brush and not a huge amount of paint and you'll be fine. It's a really easy modification.

Nice!  It's not my personal style, but I love seeing these kind of ideas shared on the forum.  They're very useful for people looking for simple mods for their sabers.  Smiley

I had to admit: I really like that.  Not only is it simple and effective but it looks aggressive.  Good Sith mod  Smiley
