Game Boy Advance LED Trigger Bumper Kit

A little tricky for me to install, but with a little tenacity, they’re great! Wired mine to light up every time I got the triggers.

I bought 10 individual lights to do led lit buttons and triggers and they’re great. Nice and bright and super compact. Only downside is the wire it comes with is pretty deformed but I hust used my own. Got the slow change rainbows but I wish I had gotten fast changing instead, but all is well because they look AMAZING!!

I got the White (warm) LEDs with clear black prestige buttons. Easy to install, and they work as expected. I wired mine to turn on when using the triggers, and they work great. These are surprisingly bright, and a neat little touch to the GBA. This is a purely aesthetic mod.

This was one of the most fiddly and complicated mods to install. Without proper tools it can take you hours. Cutting the right length of wire, taping the transistors down in the right spot, cutting the legs of the transistors and LEDs, and taping the LEDs down just right, but the issue is when closing the system.

Everything needs to be out of the way of the s crew holes, case edges, and the LED light pipe is a tight squeeze. It needs to be up against the left trigger metal casing perfectly or the motherboard won't fit flush. It took me an hour to get this just right. Like someone else suggested use paint or a sharpie and color in the left side of the light pipe so the light doesn't bleed through. Recommended tools:

• Wire strippers
• Flush cutters
• Helping hands
• Double sided kapton tape
• Multimeter (to check for continuity between everything)
• Patience

I absolutely love these and they were really easy to install. I personally chose to wire them so they are always on. This caused me a little trouble as the light overflowed into the diffuse tube for the power indicator making it hard to tell if my battery was low. As a simple solution I removed the diffuser and painted the sides of it black and this fixed it for me.

Took me a while to get everything installed proper, but the LEDs are bright and perfect for my handheld.
