EDIT: missed that you mentioned the backlight type. You may need to cut the housing for the LCD. He left this out of his tutorial for some reason.
You can solder to the 5v source on the front board. You can use the same solder points that the VB/VC backlights use.
The wire over the back of the speaker won't work. I'm pretty sure the speaker sits flush on the plastic, so the wire won't allow for it to close properly.
The backlight might not be seated properly. Just don't force it shut, it should close comfortably. Without more pictures, it's difficult to say.

This is a small limited edition beta run, sold as is without warranty.

Or you could fit this into GBP. According to the chip spec it might be able to operate at 3V...
Could just use the 5v source on an MGB, but it would probably draw too much current, especially with an EMS cart or backlight. Also fitting the MIDI jacks in isn't really possible without some sort of adapter, and at that point, it might as well be external.
They don't match up. The NES controller uses signal/common ground, where as the DMG uses a simple matrix circuit. So the NES controller has to be modified.
Anode is the top. The resistor to replace, if necessary, is at the top left of the board (1k ohm).
Well my VB backlights have had quite similar changes for about 4 months or so. Like I said, it didn't warrant a new "variant" title because it's not a variant- it's an upgrade. It is going to cause confusion, but as I'm sure you recall, it was my idea to use the variant system to make a distinction between all other suppliers which use "V1, V2, V3". So it doesn't make sense for me to drop the name. But if you have a suggestion, let me know. I've already dropped the LEDx3 name, so now people will just have to make the distinction by clarifying LEDx3/Kitsch/ASM etc...
