Make Firefox 3 or 3.5 look like the Firefox 3.7 new theme mockup

Well, that sure didn't take long.

Just days ago Mozilla posted a few conceptual images displaying a new default theme for Firefox 3.7. Thanks to DeviantArt user Boneyard Brew and his friends, you can now tweak your existing Firefox 3 install (provided you're not running 3.6) look pretty dang close to the mockups.

You'll need to grab a couple things to pull off the transformation:

• Personal Menu - One of my favorite add-ons. Needed to combine the bookmark and tools icons.
• All Glass - To add Vista / Windows 7 Aero Glass effects to the toolbars
• Stylish - To apply the provided UserStyle which tweaks inactive tab text
• The theme .JAR, from DeviantArt (of course)

The end result is pretty faithful to the mockup. Pull the switcheroo and confuse your pals - tell them you got your hands on an early pre-alpha (Make it more convincing with a quick Titlebar Tweak)!
