Sweet work man :o

Im trying to do the Backlight to a pocket GB but i already broke 2 LCD

The first i removed the reflective and polarizer layer, it was hard to peel off..so i broke the ribbon  ;)

The second i removed carefully only the reflective, but then i had to clean the glue from the polarizer and that was insane..after A LOT (2 days of working) of alchool and diluent it became clear, but when i turned it on i found many dead lines pixel and i raged very bad, so i detroyed it lol.

Waiting for a new display..im pretty sure backlighting a DMG is easier :| Just need to find a good one at a good price  :D

Don't let your temper flare.

Hey Irv, what did you use to color your frontlight jobs? They look sick!

I'd imagine different colored LEDs for the screens.
