Hmm , I know most people are going to give yah random links. For your LED issue, goto Ebay, mouser.com, goldmine-elec, etc. Those are the main sites you can use to get LEDs, that's where I go at least, most people goto mouser, but they also have other sites. Can't say much on giving ya a tut for it, since most of them have pictures but the pics have broken links. The main thing to know is where to connect the LEDs. The main and strong point used is the 3rd pin (from the left) and the 2nd pin (from the right) of the GBA slot cartridge, on the ds lite. You can also use bt - and bt + but the LEDs will ALWAYS stay on and that will suck up your battery life nasty.

btw the way the size you are going to want is 0603 for the smallest (If you check a coin letter thats about how big it is) and possibly 3mm (those are easy to solder to
) but they are large and will not fit in the ABYX and d-pad
However today I was brutally raped by a door handle, and none of my friends helped me up off the floor after ten minutes, instead they all teabaged me, all 10 of them...

I was wondering if the 3mm are just small enough to fix in the trigger buttons though. I know those triggers actually have good space inside.

Lol yeah, but it would make your DS look like it has polkadots. I know DS' aren't alive, but if I saw that, I'd call it sick ;P
