Just Finished the start of one psp... comments??

[deathshells]

hello, just finished messin around with the first proper mod ive done (mainly just been xbox controller smd replacements) but finally got my hands on 2 psp 1000"s was having real trouble trying to get one cheap off ebay so i decided friday ad was best bet. turns out i got an amazing one for 15 quid, then a friend at school offered me one for 40... so i took that too 
anyways anuff of mah jabberin heres the start, if you look down the list youll see homemade jewels post, thats mine and i used on of those. the leds are wired into the hold switch... didnt want to attract to much attention. 












please ignore the crack on the umd door... yes i did do that because i was careless with the scalpel i used to cut the door... but then i ordered 4 more from hong kong (worries!) but they turned out brilliant and im now using one of those. i took these pics literally just after id finished the whole thing.... at 3.15 am (*groans*) anyways.... comments welcome good or bad.... there are 6 smd's in total.

for a first time it aint bad, but why the resistor in the umd? bit strange spot.
and is there tape on the umd door?????

That PSP looks awesome!  Green is my favorite color, and the green LED's are the best! I bought a PSP Phat with a broken screen from a friend for 10 bucks, and I'm trading my other friend a screen for 8 LED's and some kynar wire. So now, I have a Phat and a Slim PSP both with Custom Firmware  . Well, I haven't hacked the Phat yet, but I will when I get the screen

wow a fair few repies already! thanks. anyway. the reason there is a resistor in there is because i wired it all up separately so the triggers were completely out of the psp when i soldered them together and same with the umd door. the wires go over the laser because i wasnt too sure on how to take it out with the possible want of putting it back in, so i just unplugged the laser flatwire and taped it down on top of the port. really dont want to be pulling this lot apart again even though its simple i had a bit of trouble with insulation tape (heatshrink not to hand at the time) not quite covering the connections enough so i ended up with the leds lighting up when i didnt want them to! i think ive answered everything...
