I used CablesToGo.com to buy my illuminated USB cables, which match my lighted NovaGem buttons.  You can see five of them plugged into the hub in my CP on the right side of this picture, and one more plugged into the LEDWiz at the bottom (there is also a green one going into the hub from the back of the CP visible).



I use a different color for cables going to components that are not inside the CP, in this case, orange runs to two Stelladapters that are under the CP on the front of the cab:


They come in a variety of colors:

this looks just aesome. Great job.

Im a little curious though as to what you used all that USB for. Actually, i wanna know mabeye i missed something when i built my cabinet.

Mine has a hub with 5 cables going out of it.

two of them are behind a door with my disk drives for powering an external hard drive,

and two of them are hidden under the control panel for plugging in gamepads for players 3 and 4.

and one goes to my Ipac.

I'm actually using 14 USB connections in my cab:

Inside CP:
2x U360 joysicks
1x U-trak trackball
1x Spin-Trak spinner
1x LEDWiz
1x Ipac

Inside Cab:
2x Stelladapters
1x Keyboard
1x mouse
1x External hard drive
1x Griffin Powermate volume control mod
2x front panel ports for accesories

So, I have one 7 port hub inside the CP and one 4 port hub in the cabinet.
