Were will i find AR film?

Post by Nortier » Fri May 22, 2009 7:13 pm

I need some anti reflective film for my front lit gbc. I have the front light installed and running off of the gameboys power but it washes the image out to much. I have read that ar film will help this and was wondering what kind of things I could scavenge this stuff off of or a substitute I could use.

P.S. Normally I would prolly buy some but I am driving to cedar point tomorrow and dont want such a small thing holding me back from using this on the long car ride.

I second this, I'm in the same exact dilemma.

Look up the PSone Antiglare removal mod. You can use the AR film you pull off any LCD using that mod.

Or, buy anti-glare screen protectors for iphones, then cut them to size. They are thicker by a bit, and not quite as clear, but still look good.

Excellent

thank you for the idea, i had no idea that AR film was on the front of screens, no all I have to do is open my gameboy of and put it on. I hope to post pics of it this weekend.

If you can, swap the polarizer from a GBASP onto a GBA or GBC, as it has the AR film and polarizer all in one.
