you just need to hook up two LEDs to an unused molex connector on your PC power supply, no hacking required.  Your power supply has seperate 5v and 12v leads, so pick LEDs that work on either of those voltages or use an appropriate resistor to reduce the 12v to whatever you need.

Retroblast had a great review on this. I did it and it was pretty easy. I just bought a couple PC power extenders from Radio Shack and cut one of the ends off and spliced in the wires. Took about 10 min. total.
