...and added blue cathode lights under my shaker. Turned out pretty good, except I broke one of the the damn light tubes somehow. Thanks again to AREA 51 for giving me some pointers. Well here are the night time pics. Sorry the pics are kinda dark, but I had to turn off my flash or you couldnt see the lights in the pics.

I dont want too many lights in there, just wanted something subtle. I do need a few more just to brighten it up a little bit more though.

yes... subtle... I think its do-able IF you line it near the bottem... AND wire it so they only come on when the hood id open (run it off the hood light)

FIRST OFF THAT LOOKS GREAT!!!
Do you have 1 pair on each side (2 tubes) or 1 tube on each side? I have 2 tubes on each side with a transformer for each
I started with the idea of putting more light in the engine bay but it ended up being too much. This under the shaker stuff is just right. You have to see it in person to get the full effect or get someone who can get good night pics. mine looked way tooooo busy, on the verge of rice with more light so I took them out
before with whole engine bay lit
end result with just shaker cathodes

Trust me dude, I've watched that vid. and the other so many times... I've found two within like 3 miles of me both are about $20k.. Just can't afford it right now... 
I've had my car for almost 6yrs now, was my first car.. Im ready for a change, but I might just have to find a GT or something and throw a shaker on it.. lol

If you found a way to make it work what color would you get? if you had all 8 colors on the lot which would you pick?
I liked the black ones. What swervo did to his is exactly what I would want for mine. The blue flame highlights are perfect imo. For me this is my first stang and I just wanted power. It wasnt until I owned it for a few weeks that I realized what I bought. I didnt do much research. It consisted of calling my best friend who is a ford guy and asking him "whats this mach 1 thing?" his answer was simple "DRIVE IT" and the rest it history.

Well honestly, I didn't like the Azure blue at first, but it's definitely growing on me. Only problem... Haven't seen ONE Azure blue or even Black around here ANYWHERE.
This is the one that I drove a few weeks ago:
has about 15Kmi, Short shifter, Magnaflow Exhaust w/ Hpipe, CAI, Im pretty sure it had 4:10's but im not sure could have just been the extra powa! Stealership was asking about $22k (negotiable)
It was just incredible, the power, had it up to 135 in no time.. Used $10 worth of gas in a little over an hour lol.. And I LOVE the interior, the seats are just so freakin' comfortable...
