NOTES:
- *It is recommended to not install the audio jack if you plan to use a standard SP battery, as fitting a battery is easier without the audio jack. If you are planning on using the Mame Boy Advance SP Kit without the headphone jack, short the headphone jack pins as per the photos in this link. If you do not do this, you will have no audio through the speaker.
- Mame Boy Advance SP requires a Raspberry Pi with a header. If you have a Pi with a pre-installed header, no soldering required. If not, you will be required to solder the header to the Pi.
- Although not required, adding the additional 2 front buttons will open up more games to play on the Zega Mame Boy Advance SP. Some shell modification is required. You can also purchase a drill guide from Zarcade to assist.

PCB color may vary.
- Raspberry Pi, shell, buttons, membranes, speaker, battery, hinges not included.
WARNINGS:
- Please ensure you are confident in your soldering ability to attempt this project. Under no circumstances will any refunds/replacements be made if soldering has been attempted.
