I have bought a chrome psp casing and I am just wondering how hard it is to install the entire casing being a first mod, besides hard modding a battery to make it pandora. Plz leave comments

Not that hard if you have basic knowledge.
There are virtual tuts on this site that you do it all on your PC so you can see what your going up against! :cool:

It is really easy as long as you just take your time and be careful. I just put a chrome one on a customers psp just yesterday and it looked pretty good so good choice and have fun.

Difficulty rating is probably a 4/10 for a first timer.
Only thing i could suggest is to organize your screws, and make a mental note of how things fitted.
Another thing, a lot of tutorials found online suggest using an exacto knife. DO NOT use one. If you slip with it, you could very easily end up slicing through a cable/ribbon. I suggest using a #000 flat head screwdriver for prying, latching and unlatching.

you could also use a butter knife. ftat enough to use but it isn't going to cut up your psp or yourself.

I always use exact-o knife whatever its called to pry the lcd off.
other things i do with flathead screwdriver. and yes, i have slipped the exact-o knife sumtimes i was like :fear: but it just scratched some plastic.
but butter knife is the best option i think.
-
I just use a small flat head for everything... Works very well.

Thanks for all of your help and I think I will be ready for the full case swap and something else i want to do to my psp when I am a more experience modder is like this except with an internal gocam, usb charge, sdhc mod and dual nub which is pretty crazy.
