"I would say to practice on something old and broken. But also because you have a V1.0 box it means the lpc holes are already filled with solder, so in theory you should only have to heat it up slightly and slide the wires in. (I think - Never done a solder mod lol so I could be wrong)"

Anyone know if thats true?

Yeah pretty much, the wire installs for modchips are best if you have LPC holes filled with solder, and the pinheader is best if the holdes are empty.

Isn't a wire install like 29 wires? *shiver*

Phew, I was wondering when if I was gonna get that question wrong the otherday when I left that reply.

Lol, you were right though.
