Lighting up the Sprinter sign in the tail lights.

Hey guys, I was just wondering if it is at all possible to put some sort of light behind the red Sprinter sign in the black strip on the tail lights??? I know it is possible to get a similar thing for Silvias and 180SX's so I am assuming that there is a way!
Can someone please inform me?
Thanks heaps!

Pull it apart and have a look, it can't be all that hard.

Drill small holes and insert that size LED. Its hollow underneath (smashed an old one open) so it should light up well.
Was gonna attempt it but I want the fullface ones eventually so I havent bothered.

 MURDERER, parts are getting rare enough without these sort of shenanigans?

The one I smashed had been broken by someone in a car park, they broke the reverse light and part of the brake light plastics, I only broke it further to have a peek.
