usually flat mesh just looks a mess, like sum chav took his grill out and put mesh in instead but that looks good.
im also a geek and like messing around with LEDs, lets have a vid of it working.

take it u've jus re wired a standard night rider jobby. i was gunna make chasing lights round my speakers but its that long since gcse electronics now i've forgotten all the circuits now. might mod sumthin similar to what u've done.
