The lcd reads out X3 info when in the x3 config utility. It will read out xbmc info (setings, song info movie info and such). The easiest way is to get the X3 control panel. It comes with the pro switches, lcd and 2 usb ports already integrated in and is easy to install. Lights aren't too bad to install, just have to know where power is coming from. Just do a search here and in xbox-scene.
