So I good while back I decided to region mod my system... well after 2 nights of hair pulling I decided to send it off to Turbokon where he smashed it up something good! (metaphorically speaking) Well after all my headaches had subsided and I got the Turbob back, I found these handy-dandy little wire connector thingys. Someone somewhere on here had mentioned them once before, but of course I didnt find any of this info until my project was finished. Well, back at the time I went ahead a scored a few packs of these things just in the event I take another swing at something similar.
Now I have decided to give you soon-to-be-modders a chance to simplify the work by using some of these radical jumper wires! I have 2 sets of these Im willing to donate. The only thing I ask is that you intend to immediately use these and not squirel them away, this is mainly because I want to know how well they work cuz if they suck im gonna toss the few I have left... But if they are the tits and work well, im gonna try to get some more on the cheap to supply folks around here with. It would make a difficult task alot less nerveracking and would cut the soldering job in half. And at like 5$ shipped to your door, i think they would be well worth it not having to scream obscenities at your soldering station for over an hour. <-- Thats how I concentrate to do my best work :)

Excuse my quirky vocabulary... just to clarify, Turbokon did a fantastic job on my Turbo! In no way was his "smashing" of my Turbo a bad thing ;)

Pics of these connectors? I have been waiting for the new game tech region mod to be available so I can mod my new duo. I have modded "the old way" which is fine... I'm just looking for a "cleaner" approach.
