We had quite an entertaining night last night, big group of us drinking it up at Epcot's Food and Wine Festival. I purchased a kickass Horned helmet at Norway and want to mod some LED lights inside the horns so they glow at night. Sure as heck will make it easy for us to follow each other at night each time we go back.

I figured picking up one of those LED necklaces/toys and inserting it inside each Horn would work best, but where can you buy those things? The necklaces have 4-5 multi color LED's that cycle through a few different modes, powered by a single AA battery.

Found some here: http://www.windycitynovelties....ITEM_ID=7614&CatID=325

Drill out the top of each horn so you can hide the battery inside, then crazy glue the light string down the horn in a spiral, candy cane pattern.

Do a google search for rave toys. Chances are pretty good you'll find what you're looking for, or something equally usable, at one of those sites. :)
