Posted by exodus on October 21, 2015 at 22:31:51 EST in reply to The big thing with the GB modders is, apparently, LOCA (Liquid Optically Clear Adhesive). I have never used the stuff, but the idea is that it forms a clear adhesive layer between the light panel and the LCD panel. I guess it's supposed to be a lot better. If you look around, I think you'll find some frontlight mod guys recommending a specific brand/style of LOCA. A couple years back, I found a guy in China that sold GBA frontlight panels that were okay for NGPC. They were just a bit of a pain to source and install, so I didn't pursue this as a service. I've tried the Kitsch-Bent panel, too. I didn't like that they have small ribs that kinda screw up the optics. (link inside) Please let us know how it goes (or went). from Flavor.
thanks!! I'll send this through to my friend who is doing it for me (I don't know how to solder, though I'd like to learn soon!)
