It depends how that panel is manufactured, if it's anything like the first ipods then it won't be. If you shine the light through the top, the light is hitting the clear layer, not the white paint, so it distributes much better, I tried modding a white ipod, and i couldn't get light to shine though without it being really dim. However, if it is just a thin layer of paint, and then glass, I think it would work very well.

i've already added leds to a clear homemade 3gs digitizer, it looks kind of nice but distracting, it will get criticized definitely
