deviouskoopa is correct. You coud relocate the whole thing with minimal wires but what's the point(for the people that want to keep stock backlighting). This is just very usefull for led modders.
I will post a pic with a cut line. You don't need to rewire anything as the whole top circuit is used for the backlichting and the led on the right side of the board.
Since that only goes on just to show you that's it's on it's useless so I decided to cut it off.
BEFORE ANYBODY VENTURES IN THIS I HAVE MORE TESTS TO DO!!!
I haven't tested everything possible. I'll triple check everyhting today though.

zenloc, let's work together to include this in the guide, yes?
I'll try this out as well. It's really useful information, especially for relocation, I can't believe all those chips up there are for nothing more than the backlight. I assume that you just follow the big dark green line on the back of the board when cutting, am I right? (with being able to chop off some more on the right of it)

Correct Kyo. Here are sum pictures of stuff you can cut off. Most of it you have already done. Excuse my crap foto's hahah bad telefoon cam.
I can say with 100& certainty that the top can be cut of without any relocation whatsoever. Everthing works perfectly. Sound, brightness, compostie and rgb. don't look at the lines at the bottom since the might not be entirely correct check kyo's pics for the correct ones
I tested about everything and nothing is affected by this.
Kyo feel free to make some new pictures since you cam is def better than mine
If people are interested i also have a smaller psone screen which works perfectly but requires more reallocating. Not really worth it unless you want the entire mobo to fit behind the lcd. SO nothing will stick out(including the sound chip on the side)

Does the brightness controls still work? I'm not sure, what you meant with by saying only "brightness". I'm planning to make the led mod but I still would like to control the brightness of the screen.zenloc wrote: I can say with 100% certainty that the top can be cut of without any relocation whatsoever.
