Talking Lighting projects for robots

this year ohm bots mounted computer neon tubes under our robot and were able to control them from the control station (ironically this was the most reliable aspect on our robot). well this year I'm looking to go one step farther. since we also used nylon mesh tubing to organize all our wiring (highly recommended for neatness but find a way to mark wires first!) I'm going to run something called EL wire through all our tubing. imagine you flip a switch and all your beautiful wiring glows... very cool. Ive also found a LCD board that does the sequential flashing as seen on night rider or the cylons on battle star galactica. just some ideas. if anyone has any other cool ideas post them.
