Title: Where can I buy buttons, cases..... for mods??
Post by: rafaliyo86 on January 28, 2010, 10:49:45 AM: Well, This is my first topic and I want to congratulate all the members of Acidmods because is incredible the work that you do it.

Said that, Is there some place cheaper where i can buy buttons, cases and more things to do mods? I know that coolmods has them, but I would like a site where i can buy with my paypal account because i am not in the uk.

Thanks a lot

Post by: rafaliyo86 on January 31, 2010, 01:54:02 PM: Ok, i have asked in coolmods and they ship to my country this is great!!

I have two new questions that i think have a quick answer. I am going to mody controller and i would like to move dpad. I have seen that i have to cut the case and after paste it and my questions are the following:

-whats the best tool to cut the case like the photos of "redesign the controller"?

-what product do you use to paste the case and where i can buy it? Maybe ebay??

Post by: 802Chives on February 10, 2010, 09:23:01 AM: The tool you want is called a "Rotary Tool" and the brand name is "Dremel"

The Paste you speak of is referred to as "Bondo"

You should be able to find the faceplate and everything else on ebay

Post by: rafaliyo86 on February 16, 2010, 05:32:24 AM: Ok, how I said before, I am trying to move d-pad, i have removed the analog stck with a "hot gun" and now this analog stick doesnt work fine but isnt a problem because I bought one one ebay weeks ago. I say all this becuse i want if in the future try to do the same i would like to remove the analgo stick with a desolder (i think is the best way without broke the stick) and i would like if you can recommend me where i can buy one that will be good. if it can be to accept payment through paypal and send to ohter countries.

Thanks
