21 Super Cool Xbox 360 Case Mods
When you had bought the Xbox 360 first, you may have liked its looks. But after having seen it in the same design for more than a year can become boring. It becomes like a sore in your eye and you want to replace it with some other better Gaming console. While you can’t buy a Gaming console every now and then, you can try out the mods that make the old console look like a new one and unique (I mean how many people own an Xbox 360 today, with the same White box and a green switch-on light). These mods that I have collected are the best ones you can find anywhere. You will surely love most of them. So, here is the list of best Microsoft Xbox 360 Mods available out there. The numbering is completely rapid and is not based on any kind of ranking.
21) Xbox 360 Mod Car
This Mod Car proves that people just love to do stuff while driving. The mod has been cleverly built into the car. A gamer can’t stay away from his gaming console for too long and this mods solves the problem by letting you take the Xbox 360 with you, everywhere you go. That said, I wonder how this works and the brilliant idea of this amazes me. It could be great at places where people get stuck in traffic for hours.
20) Halo Custom Mod
This is truly a piece of art. If you have ever played Halo or liked the Halo Game on PC, this alone will be the reason to get a new Xbox 360. This Mod is called ‘Craget’ and was build in 2 months by the Designer from UK in his spare time. There are no internal modifications apart from the base cooler that he fitted with some LED’s to light up the case.
19) Black Xbox 360 HDMI Chameleon Case
Black Chameleon Case Mod for Xbox 360
People that demanded that Xbox 360 be made in Black color can now relax and mod their Xbox 360’s with this Black Chameleon Case. There are no major internal modifications done in this mod but the addition of the LEDs. The color of the inner LEDs is changeable, hence the name Chameleon.
18) Master Chief Case
Master Chief Case mod for Xbox 360
This is a Full Replacement Case for your Xbox 360 console and comes with Master Chief Character from Halo etched on the side. This is the best mod for the Halo’s die hard fans, which I am sure are still at large. The package Includes Faceplats, DVD Bezel, and an Eject Button.
17) Hot Rock case Mod for Xbox 360
The lights of the LED built inside this mod change when the temperature of your gaming console changes. This also acts as a warning that you have spent too much time playing Video Games. The softer the light, the cooler is the console and the darker the light, the hotter is the Gaming console. The Picture below shows the different colors of the LED at different temperatures.
16) Chrome HDMI Case Combo
This shinny chrome case mode for Xbox 360 comes with High Quality Chrome HDMI Case with matching Wireless Controller Case and matching Hard Drive Case. The Xbox 360 chrome shell wraps your console with a gorgeous surface that’s so gleaming that you could use it as a mirror. The Pack costs $49. (Image Credit: Technabob)
15) Core Cooler v2 + Green LED Mod
The Core Cooler v2 Green LED Case mod for Xbox 360 comes with twin fans to cool the Gaming console. This case mod can be used on all consoles, even the ones that come built in with heat sink. It provides an attractive cooling solution for the Xbox 360 and increases the life of your gaming consoles by taking care of the extra heat it produces.
14) Master Chief Helmet Case Mod
Yet another Halo case mod built in such a way that you can look the inside of your gaming console through master chief’s helmet. You love Halo? You love the Master Chief? Then you will surely love this Case mod too.
13) Gears of War See Thru Case Mod
A mod For the Gears of War fans, features the famous skull logo. Looks pretty cool. This will suit the Gears of War playing environment and make other fans of the game (Who don’t have this Mod) jealous. Love the GoW? We recommend that you go for this Mod.
12) Red Ruby Combo Mod
Some people just love to have Red things around their rooms, this Red Mod is best for them.
11) XCM 360 Crystal case with HDMI port
The Crystal Clear XCM Mod is for those people that are overwhelmed with the glassy gadgets. This Case mod will turn your Xbox 360 into full see through console.
10) Xbox 360 Laptop Mod
The Xbox 360 Laptop is surely one of the best Mods for Xbox. It makes your Gaming console portable and has a 17″ wide (diagonal) 1280×720 progressive-scan LCD VGA monitor and Water-cooled custom-built radiator. It also feature a Built-in keyboard and Wi-Fi. It can also be connected to a PC.
9) Alligator Skinned Case Mod
The system’s scaly gator skin was made using hand-sculpted layers of Bondo, coated with paint and clear-coat to give it the glossy wet look.
Water Cooled Mod
If you go on playing on your Xbox 360 for hours and hours together and are too disappointed from the console being over-heating often, then you might want to check this cool water cooling case mod. Apart from cooling the System, it also adds an icy look to your Xbox 360.
7) PC Mod for Xbox 360
People that love to game on their PCs but don’t have the hardware necessary to play high end games, or the games they love aren’t launched for PC will love to buy and use this mod for XBox. Not only does it look cool, but it also makes other PCs look like monsters in size (At least for the Cabinet Size.) (More Info:Electric0ant)
6) Half Life Mod
Well, this doesn’t need any explanation apart from that it is a fan boy thing. The left side of the case features a cut away window with the HL2 logo in the corner. The right side features another logo which is raised off the surface of the case. All in all, it’s very impressive work.
5) Case Mod with Built-In LCD
People that have no problem playing games on 5.8-inch LCD when the big TV or LCD is available might love this case mod. This makes the Xbox 360 a portable gaming consoles provided that you don’t mind playing games on the small LCD. The screen resolution of the LCD is 1200 x 234 pixels though. This is a very limited edition of the Xbox 360.
4) Rockstar Case Mod
Probably the best thing a GTA IV player will want in his house. The housing has been cleverly cut to make inside of the Console be revealed. The bundle also inculdes matching Controllers and Hard Drive case.
3) Lian Li Xbox 360 modding Case
We included a water cooling enabled Xbox 360 mod above but I want to add this one too because it is too nice to miss. This Lian Li Xbox Case debuted at CES 2008 and has become on of the most bought Case mods for Xbox 360. this sleek, brushed aluminum Case mod makes your Xbox 360 Cooler and that too without making noice unlike other Cooling Mods out there. (More info: Lian Li)
2) 300 Movie Case Mod
Gamers that find time to watch movies and loved 300 Movie will surely love this too. Did I tell you that this is a Signed, super rare mod of Xbox 360?
1) XBox 360 Tissue Machine + Alarm Clock Mod
After using the XBox 360 for a long time and comparing it with the Sony’s PS3, this is the best thing you can do to it. This mod turns the Xbox 360 into a super useful Tissue machine and for the pleasure, it has a built in Digital Clock too.
Wow on #12.
The 2nd one is for UT. It’s a longhorn in a burnt orange Xbox.
http://www.texaskappa.org/images/longhorn.bmp
LOL “The Rock tattoo” do some research.
Interesting site, i have bookmarked your blog for future referrence
This article is a joke.
“Matrix Mod”??? It’s a STICKER.
Can you elaborate more on the Xbox 360/PC Hybrid that you have in #7? It sounds like you intended to include a URL but there isn’t one.
Thanks a lot!
A few cool mods posted by a terrible reviewer. That matrix one is horrible, not cool.
I cant believe the Lian Li Case didnt make it.
“Oh god, I’m smashing the B button but the car just won’t stop!!”
cool mods.
Another great place to find Xbox 360 mods is http://www.consolesource.com
Some are really good ones you have there.
sophisticated case…..
nice! very sophisticated
the ps3 is a great blu ray player, its a terrible game system. also, 12 is a texas long horns case not a the rock tattoo.
p.s. stickers are not mods.
The Matrix “mod” looks good? Are you kidding me? That looks like crap on toast. The way the sticker shows bits of the system’s plastic, which clash horribly with its design, is tacky and horrible.
There are way cooler mod’s out there. There are some good ones here but please, the whole LED/window thing is so 90’s.
These are nice mods, but maybe you should get your facts right before you post something, You’ve made a lot of mistakes here.
Thanks to everyone for leaving your valuable comments. I see that I made a lot of mistakes in writing this post and didn’t do my homework properly in collecting the correct information. I am really sorry for that, I should have read the Article at least once before making it live. I have fixed all mistakes I made, the Longhorn Mod and the Matrix Sticker are now removed. If there is anything else that needs to be fixed, please let me know.
These are so cool. I like the #1, very practical.
Fortunately that’s all those boxes are worth doing with. Nice work. Microsoft can lick the curly’s on my ass sideways!
lol getting red ring in the car one, or any for that case, that sucks
You actually put in case mods, thinking they could top a car. It’s a CAR.
I’m sorry but the off the shelf cases are hardly mods. A mod should be something that takes a little skill to do like putting in a window, repainting, modding the DVD drive or successfully replacing the cover of a hard drive with a window. There is no danger of screwing up with just replacing the case. Not to say that the off the shelf case mods are horrible its just they are to easily done to be put up there with real mods like the 360 laptop or the halo battlefield mod at #20.
I love how the idiot poster of this knocks Halflife fans because of the casemod by saying appeasing fanboys, but clearly this kid is a ps3 fanboy because of his number 1… saying the ps3 is superior? They are based on the same technology for the most part, with a some variations, but overall they run about the same. While some titles run a bit better on the ps3, and some run a bit better on the xbox 360. It really depends on who the developer of the game pushes the game for harder. Notice games like fallout 3, rainbow 6 vegas 2. that look better on the 360 but games like gta4 which have a more gritty look to them that gives you a better realistic gameplay experience on the ps3. Anywho, Most mods on here are pretty note worthy, and took some skill, very few case swaps overall. Let the fanboy flaming begin!
can someone please tell me what keyboard..make an model that is on the xbox 360 pc mod?? i’ve been lookin for a nice keyboard that has the media controls for windows media player..is good for gaming, and has soft keys like a laptop..if anyone has any suggestions or can even just tell me what that one is i’d like to know an really would appreciate it..thanks in advance!! get at me knights543@hotmail.com if you have the info..thanks once again!
That last one with the tissues is a total waste of a 360
@TLL Chief: According to the description of your needs you gave, Microsoft X6 Keyboard seems to be the best. You can see the product page here http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/gaming/productdetails.aspx?pid=102
@Allie,
Your comment was hilarious. I now have a visual of you doing that…
Was anyone else offended by the toilet paper/alarm clock? If someone had done this to a PS3, it would of been worth it. I would actually by a PS3 then because it would be useful.

The consoles are equal but it inevitably came down to the fact that the xbox was way too loud.
wow the driving mod is so dangerous
Wow, the car mod is the absolute shit-crack!
Hi to all,
I like a lot Alligator Skinned Case Mod (I’m fascinated by it) and the Water Cool Mod (blue is just my favorite color).
What we can say, just that’s of the Informatique masterpiece!!!…

Is this for playing the titular Dead or Alive Extreme Beach Volleyball?
Whoops I meant the tissue ‘mod’.
@Alex V-M The Xbox is dead. It can’t play anything.
so for number 19…where can i get it?
@Lemaar Look for it on Extreme-Mods.com
Thanks for Dropping by. I wasn't knowing that it is a Sticker, I accept my mistake but it is natural for us to make mistakes. Isn't it? Thanks for correcting me though.
MOD’ing a stock case is a mod although honestly who wants to sit there and MOD a hardrive think about it the only real thing you can do is allow it to read burned games which is honestly pointless cause microsoft just keeps comming up with ways to prevent you from being able to play those games online which in all reality is the point of having and xbox. In addition, modding the case voids your warranty cause you have to break the sticker in order to do so. although yes we all know you can take the sticker off with otu breaking it, in its entirety but microsoft isn’t stupid honestly. but if you mod the case or put some cool fans in with lights or twin fans to keep your system cooler thats enough honestly cause voiding your warranty is enough but having to deal with more bs with fixing your xbox because someone like you wants to be cheap and flash your disk drive so you can play burned games yea. your waisting yoru time eventually all that will stop really soon. That why microsoft has required updates to fix those things. don’t get me wrong if you ahve a second system you want to tweak and toy around with yea have at it but it’s not going to last to much longer till microsoft finds a way to prevent it.
what this is asome ha ha
Nice! Haven’t seen some of these before which is cool, thanks for sharing.
Some more modded consoles here if you want to check them out, mix of 360 and PS3
http://www.collthings.co.uk/2008/09/cool-modded-consoles.html
Very interesting compilation of Xbox360 mods. There are more then a few I am interested in
This post is weak. Do some research next time and don’t pull all your pics from one site. Weeeeeeak
Dude im sorry but your retarded, PS3 sucks ass compared to XBox……
The xbox-pc mod isn’t an xbox, it’s a pc mod made of an xbox cabinet xD
But great job anyway, i like the chrome mod^^
These console are crazy. Can anyone tell me how to custom mine? or tips if possible?
Great article.
Great stuff. Nice to read some well written posts. A long way between them.
lol people need to stop arguing about which consoles better. in the end it all comes down to what you prefer as a gamer. you can argue that the xbox 360 is a spaztic golden retriever that occasionally pisses itself and dies. but others could argue that the ps3 is a big dumb black lab that while being slow brings you your slippers every morning. of course the nintendo wii is a yapping lapdog that while being annoying is good with kids. my point is you could argue until your eyes start bleeding and your fingers fall off from typing but that fact remains that at the end of the day your not going to change anyone elses mind.
besides if you have to argue that your console is superior then its not because a truly remarkable console speaks for itself fanboys
where can you get #10 or is it not able to be sold?
They are all cool in thier own way. The tissue one is a bunch of shit…XD…but if i could get prices on the ‘Halo Custom Mod’(#20, that would be awesome! justin_nelson_monkey@yahoo.com
#16 fitting this will it void your warranty
@Nguyen: @justin N: They are not available for purchase.
@Harry Potter: Every mod we have listed here voids warranty. In fact, the only reason people don’t mod their 360’s is because of the warranty.
I really like the idea behind the Tissue and Clock mod because it’s true, when you’ve owned an Xbox long enough, you realize that’s all it’s good for. The PS3 can handle so much more than the Xbox can, and PS3 doesn’t have interior AND exterior problems quite as often as the Xbox. When you’ve had an Xbox for 2 years and you’ve gotten the Red Ring 8 times, 5 of which happen right after you plug the Xbox in right after getting it back from Microsoft, you realize you should invest your money into something that actually works.
i have never gotten the red ring once and i’ve owned it for 3 years
@ Jables: You can have an opinion when you actually come up with something original to say instead of just quoting Yahtzee.
The quote for the tissue mod is so true.
that’s so cool looking. the croc skin one is creepy!

You missed this one: http://www.industrirepro.se/xbee
i am so fucking tired of people bashing 360 just because they’re system took a shit and they’re mad, the xbox and ps3 have basically equal processors and while ps3 may have better games xbox 360 has a FAR better online service, not to mention its smaller and and easier to mod. but im not saying that xbox 360 is way better than ps3, the ps3 has free online service and downloads, built in wifi and blu-ray capable. so which is better neither. though i prefer 360, im not going to sit here and argue about because they’re both simply great systems, i just have my opinion

i want an Xbox car!!!
Most of them are tasteless, just like 360 users. I must recognize there were a couple of good mods too.
got an original xbox 360 5 yrs ago – no issues – got 4 ps3’s at home – all from people who were silly enough to buy a thousand dollar paper weight – one came with no sony-os installed!!?, even bill gates aint stupid enough to do that- all still under warranty but getting no help from sony – they all went out and bought xbox’s and havn’t looked back – at the end of the day – the only ppl baggin xbox’s are sony users cause once you’ve had both – you’ll never go back to a sony
dude im lovein that car one i wanna drive that thing to work in the morning.
i wonder if it has airbags?
im so driveing that…… my friend made a microwave xbox mod lol its awesome!
