Hey G-force, I love this mod and want to try a simpler version for myself. I have a few questions though..
1) any tips on desoldering the 60 pin connector and the grey cable from the NOAC?

Use a desoldering braid or a desoldering iron. If you are discarding the 60 pin for a 72 pin connector, you ...
