One thing I did learn the hard way is to use 30 gauge wire and not thicker wire like that suggest. The reason why is that the thicker wire can get pinched when you reassemble the PS2 and short out. It did for me and killed a V12 PS2. Uukrul Registered: 2008-08-23 Messages: 2 Status: Offline  posted 2008-08-27 @ 18:39 GMT    What's the best place to install the modchip?
