All ribbon cables should have no bends or creases in them. If you are unsure how to perform a dry run, please contact our support team and we will be happy to help. Backlight kits that have been installed are not eligible for replacement or return.

    Gorgeous Display - Easy Install

    I have been modding various systems on and off over the years and this is extremely easy to install compared to many earlier mods. My only remark would be that the screen isn't as bright as I would have liked, even at dull brightness, but it's leaps and bounds better than the original Gameboy screen. Very little soldering is involved if you not a fan of that, but I highly recommend this for purchase to give your old systems new life.

    Great screen

    Amazing product. It is a very high quality screen at a reasonable price. It has multiple color pallets and has a very bright adjustable backlight. I love it in every way. (don't get it wet, mine did and some dark spots appeared but then went away when it dried)

    Very Cool

    I managed to get this installed into an original DMG-01 without too much trouble. I had to remove a few bits of the case per the instructions and cut a bit of the case back where the “contrast” button sits and that was all the case modifying needed. Soldering the speaker onto the new board was easy enough with the right tools handy. My OCD flared up a bit trying to get the new display perfectly level, so I spent a good deal of time assembling and disassembling and reassembling until I was happy with it. Overall, it is a quality product and I’m very happy with the results and the battery life is still very good with the backlight set to about 3. I can’t wait to have this with me the next time I need to do a lot of traveling. My only complaint would be the battery LED feels bright enough to burn your retina, but for the price- I can’t give this anything less than five stars.

    Solid product

    Easy mod to do, everything was packaged well and pretty straightforward. Really enjoy the backlight and 36 color schemes. If you like the feel of the Original Gameboy this is a great mod that’s pretty simple with a tiny bit of soldering involved.
