A dry run or test fit means the kit is not installed in the shell. This includes the use of adhesives, brackets, and any performed soldering. 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.

This modification works. I had to troubleshoot a messed up motherboard on the dmg to finally to get this kit to work out.
Once i found the problem the Kit came to life and i was able to get the screen to work.
For the sound to work i had to solder to the pro sound mod potentiometer solder points for the sound to work.
Whole kit set up was easy and awesome!
Probably the simplest IPS kit i have ever installed, can definitely reccomend, especially for Beginners.
This was a joy to install into a new shell in addition to being simple. But without the optional screen bracket it is quite difficult to get a great fit. The bracket is inexpensive and should be included with this kit. None the less I would recommend this product to anyone that is interested in a fun and easy project.
Great kit. Easy to assemble and has been working great. So happy to breathe new life into my old GameBoy. Would buy from HHL again for my game gear project
I've modded a previous DMG with (I think) this kit before, and it works great! Can be a bit tricky to get the ribbon cable in, but I eventually got it.
(ignore the dust on my white gameboy, btw, haha, that's all from assembly, gotta clean it!)
I've modded about 5 things using exclusively parts from HHL, and they all just WORK. This is no different.
You guys are great!
