Drill a 1/2&quot; hole if you just want to hot glue it in place.<br />Make sure you wire up the jack before gluing it in place. This will make it much easier!<br />Wire it up and test it out!</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>A couple other hints:</p><p>There&#039;s a few different models of jack, some with and some without threads. The ones with threads are designed for guitars, but I think they work best because the threads hold the epoxy well, and they can actually grip to the case of the gameboy. They take more work though - you have to do some dremeling to get them in there.<br />This is the stereo verison of one I like: <a href="http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Neutrik/NYS2203/?qs=jCymNF74TgXsgjqI9KpjIibbpf%2FHz2Yq" target="_blank">http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Neu &#133; pf%2FHz2Yq</a><br />They fit easier in the kitsch-model cases than in originals.<br /><a class="postimg" href="http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q64/kineticturtle/photo-24-1.jpg" title="http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q64/kineticturtle/photo-24-1.jpg" id="forum_image_26681340"><img src="http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q64/kineticturtle/photo-24-1.jpg" /></a></p><p>1/4&quot; jacks CAN fit in either side of an original case, but they look a little scrappy on the speaker side of an original case because some of the body of the jack will be exposed. I built a 2x1/4&quot; gameboy like that for KeFF a while back but I can&#039;t find the photos...</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>That helps SO much, thanks! </p><p>This may be asking too much, but do you think you could post close up pics of your DMG where the new longer wires attach to the battery regulator board? I&#039;d really really appreciate it because I&#039;m still a bit confused on how to go about redoing that and I think it&#039;s the only thing left I need to figure out before I can finally dive in and try to get this mod done.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>So, here&#039;s an image that shows the layout of the jack (I had to look this up too). You solder right to the little posts/arms - I had a real fun time setting up my helping hands thingie to do them all at once, but it eventually worked out (yes, I own up to my crap tier soldering). <a class="postimg" href="http://www.bz1-img.com/images_customers/02/74/5893433_53001_raw.jpg" title="jack" id="forum_image_19245817"><img src="http://www.bz1-img.com/images_customers/02/74/5893433_53001_raw.jpg" /></a></p><p>edit: the shorter post on the jack is right audio, btw - realized image doesn&#039;t really show that. long post is left, hook is ground.</p><p>As far as swapping out the board goes, I honestly haven&#039;t done it yet. I imagine as long as you get similar gauge wires (which Kitsch provides with the 1/4 kit, so I&#039;m sure he at least has them) and &#039;extend&#039; the wire by cutting, stripping, and re-soldering in a longer piece, you should be good.</p><p>Somebody who *actually* knows things should correct me.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>So is there anything special I should do when swapping out those 4 wires with longer ones to move that little board to the other side of the case? I&#039;m not really sure what I&#039;m doing. :S</p><p>Also once that board is out of the way, I know where to connect the wires to the volume pot, but on the other side I&#039;m not sure how to connect them to the actual 1/4 jack... </p><p>Anyone think they could help a newbie out?</p>]]></content>
