http://mikejmoffitt.com/wp/?p=70 I think this is what you're looking for. Never actually seen the original guide, so there might be differences
The pictures no longer work on the guide though, which may (or may not) have been what xero was getting at. The best I could find was this youtube tutorial;

It seems to be fairly in depth but I haven't fully watched it so maybe surf through it before you get to work. Good luck, I absolutely love frontlit Game Boy Colors!
EDIT: Nevermind, apparently most of the pictures do work and just weren't showing up for whatever reason, my bad.

Sick mod! For a while, I was looking at trying to add a backlight to my Gameboy Advance. That's my favorite Gameboy shape but it just drives me nuts trying to play it in crappy lighting.
I found a tut for it but I can't remember what I did with it, it was basically the same thing as this, GBA SP 001 screen and basically do a transplant. The only reason I didn't do it was because I was too lazy to go to Radio Shack to get the proper resistor for the job. -.- Not to mention the tut was a tad hard to follow. A video would have been fucking awesome. I might do this mod on my color if I can get another gameboy for the job.
