Hi,
Since I found my 2 GameBoy Colors again, (they were in my closet for about 5 years now I guess :laughing: ) I thought; why shouldn't I mod them? But because this will be my very first mod, I thought of some things.
So this is the plan (for the first one :hifive:):
- 4 rainbow leds
- new paintjob
- Build in a MP3-player
- Custom speakers
- Maybe a custom rear made of stainless Steel (kinda like an I-Pod)
So, does anyone have some idea's or suggestions?
grtz,

4 rainbow leds <<--- nice just find were you can solder them to.
- new paintjob <<--- what color in mind.
- Build in a MP3-player <<<--- gameboy color want let you do this unless you have the addon nintendo released.
- Custom speakers <<<-- what size you thinking of.
- Maybe a custom rear made of stainless Steel (kinda like an I-Pod) <<<-- mite work if you have thing to not let it conflict with the bourd(static)

- Couldn't find any rainbow one's so they're Blue now.... And about soldering; http://www.instructables.com/id/LED-Mod-Your-Gameboy-Color/?ALLSTEPS (http://www.instructables.com/id/LED-Mod-Your-Gameboy-Color/?ALLSTEPS)
- Nothing extreme, just a quick layer, it's shine-through Purple now, so I might just darken it up a bit. A thin layer of black perhaps? :cool:
- I'm removing the complete GameBoy-cardslot, It doesn't need to play games anymore :victory:
- About 3 cm. Suggestions? :dntknw:
- Ok, that's a good point, maybe I'll put some rubber or something on the inside of the back, that will work, won't it? :#1:
After all, the LED's are up first, so no worries :huh:

@andy- yes he can, just i would need its fare share of room in the case, and from what i know, gbc's dont have much extra room in them
@timmeh- i think if you look for "rgb leds" then you might find multi-color ones, idk about rainbow but you might find more then just 1 color
- paintjob wouldnt be too hard, just decase, sand, then spray or w/e you have in mind, then usually a clear coat over it
-same thing about the speakers, if you have the room then fit what you can
-but the steel backplate would problly be hardest, seeing as ive never seen one made before, so you'd have to mold it then get the steel yada yada yada
