Bought this off my friend for 5 bucks ;D Got bored after modding a sixaxis, and since I still had my iron plugged in i decided to do a quick led swap.
So a few days later, I got bored again so I decided to do some modding... Ripped open the gameboy again, and after some thinking, I decided that I didn't have enough room near the buttons to make some button-activated leds look good. But, I already had the thing open so after some more looking around I noticed that there's TONS of space in the back of the gameboy. So, I decided adding some leds there would be a good idea
Took atleast 4 hours, and I was so stressed out, but eventually I finished it lol. I ended up snapping a wire, pulling an led out of its hot glue, and ended up accidentally securing my motherboard to the back of the gameboy with hotglue and wires... So now I can't do any repairs or more mods to the back of the thing. Here are the final results.

My wiring... Not the neatest but it works.
LEDs just glued in
