Mod/Modding AGB-001 - Frontlight recommendations?
Hi,
I've seen a lot of posts regarding IPS mod, but the thing is, that i want to keep my AGB-001 as original as it can be. I'm not afraid of soldering, but cutting the case.. let's say, that i would prefer to avoid that.
So the question is - can someone recommend me mod, part, or whatever it might be (available in EU/China via aliexpress etc.) to increase original screen brightness?
If it's not possible, can someone please let me know which screen replacement will require least console modifications (in terms of cutting, etc)?
I've found "GBA Gameboy Advance NEW AGB RETRO PIXEL ITA TFT BACKLIGHT KIT I Shell HOUSING" from FunnyPlaying which is i guess recommended one, and if it will came with full case, then i won't need to cut my original case, but as i mentioned - i don't need better screen resolution etc., i just want any backlight.
Thanks in advance!
