General Comments

This thing allows you to change the colour of your Gameboy SP to a limited edition colour, however it doesn't tell you that there are no instructions and you can destroy your Gameboy by doing it. You have to take out circuits and all and one chip and it's destroyed. There is also such a thing as a screen cable which is a thin bit of plastic which snaps easily and if it does so will not allow you to see your games ever again and ruin it. The case is hard to fit and the screwdrivers provided aren't much good.
My screen now makes an irritating squeak and I wish I never bought it.
BEWARE IF YOU SEE THIS AS IT IS NOT SIMPLE AND COULD COST YOU YOUR GAMEBOY.

    i agree whole heartedly with the person who said it is hard to put on, there are no instructions, and the screwdrivers are not adequate.

    i love the fact that i can turn my sp silver... but maybe worth the money to just buy a new one(or carefully paint it...)

    Too true. I sadly severed the LCD ribbon cable's link to the circuit board and now the Game Boy is basically destroyed thanks to my carelessness and inexpertise. I also found out that it's not even possible to do partial shell replacements because the parts were not the same size as the ones on my system and thus do not fit together very well at all.
