I used two of these:

I bought Quartz Fairy Crystal Clusters, which sometimes come with very opaque bases, so I bought a decent amount more than I needed to make sure I'd got enough good, clear ones.
Then, I just went to a craft shop and constructed a trough out of Balsa wood.
Edit: Forgot a word...
Have not done it yet myself have been looking into it. Saw it on a friend's system and our looked great Amazon
There are a few options for easy lighting:
Those are all pretty straightforward. Fans just install where you've got fans, strips either go on the monitor, keyboard, or outside/inside the edges of the case. Hue is similar to the strips but is powered internally.
You can get a little more complex with things like Cold Cathode tubes.
Specs: i5 3570k, Gigabyte 7970 xfire w/ Sapphire 7950, 128 gb Samsun 840 ssd, 1tb WD HD. A shit ton of corsair fan's I bought off my buddy for a 24 pack of beer. The Hyper 212 makes a comeback cuz my Zalman lq320with its really fat radiator wouldn't fit in the top intake fan spot. It hit the 140mm mounted on the roof. And I didn't like how it crowded the Gpu's in the other two spots.
Like I said in the imgur comments, there are still a lot of small upgrades I'm planning on doing. The big gaping holes under the two hd bays are very annoying. Does anyone have any experience with Demciflex? they sell a dust filter kit specifically for the 540.
Also, any one have a suggestion to better light this guy? I bought these Antec led lighting strips but they're usb powered and I didn't realize the 540 doesn't have water cooling holes in the back. I was looking at the NZXT Hue earlier today, they seem really interesting.
And I need a fan controller that fits in a single 5.25 bay and looks decent mounted sideways.
Edit: just wanted to add that I was very happy with the quality of this product. I've always been a sub $100 cheap case user and using this corsair case was an eye opener. My only complaint is that I actually would have spent a little bit more for just a few small additions. (Air filters for all the vents comes to mind)
I was looking at these for awhile because they're USB powered but I never ended up buying them
The Led strips I used were these: http://www.amazon.com/Antec-Accent-Lighting-Blue-USB-powered/dp/B007TG5ECW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1449797326&sr=8-1&keywords=antec+led+strip
Used one blue running across and 1 red running up the middle.
which ones? Used these and this for my blue monitor ones but the consoles have color change strips from Ikea (this one).
They're just two of these plugged into a powered usb hub.
Didn't really use a guide. Just bought a pair of Antec Advance Accent Lighting Blue USB-powered 6 LED Strip's off amazon. :)

They have double sided tape and attach to the back of whatever you want to attach em to. USB powered so nothing to wire up either.
Just something like this? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Antec-Advance-Accent-Lighting-Blue/dp/B007TG5ECW
If you can add in an extra 2 bucks or so, each of these as USB back lighting for your monitor would be awesome:
