UPDATE: Unfortunately this Kit Has Changed and now REQUIRES soldering a wire. The Solderless Kit featured in the video is no longer available.

ATTENTION: Hey everyone! I forgot a step in the tutorial. Use some kapton tape to adhered the touch sensor to the inside front half of the housing so that it is not touching the rear shell when put together. This prevents an issue that caused the kit to randomly cycle through the brightness settings. Cheers!

In today's episode of Retro Renew, we take a look at a brand new IPS kit for the Game Boy Advance AGS-001. Now this kit is unique because it does not require any soldering or modification to the shell. It is a true drop in backlight kit for the GBA! So I can already hear you asking, what's the catch? Well, let's find out!
