Blanka Themed Xbox 360 Controller

Just finished my first Xbox 360 controller with light up buttons. Did this mod for a friend of mine who more or less wanted a Blanka Themed Controller with Green with Orange trim. So, D-Pad and Thumbsticks are Orange. ABXY, LB, RB, Select, Start and Guide button all light up with LEDs.

I must say it does look rather geekgasmic.

I did have some issues with this due to not having the wiring in the correct place and cutting them in half assembling the controller the first time. So, I ran new wires. No big deal just added some extra time to the process.

My First Mod - Purple and Blue Xbox 360 Controller

Here's my first controller mod. Finished it in 12/2011.

My wife mentioned that she wished her Xbox 360 controller was purple. We decided that blue would contrast it. Plus, I got bored over a long Holiday weekend. With time off of work and here's what came of it.


Being that she's more of a casual gamer, she didn't want anything fancy, like rapid fire, etc.

Hello World

Hey,

PsychoGilgamesh here.

This is my first blog post. Wanted to start a blog for my Xbox 360 Modz. I'll most likely post other related items of interest as things progress.

It's been a while since I've had a reason to pick up a soldering iron and modding so far has been fun.

I'm not sure how far this rabbit hole will go. Feel free to make requests, suggestions and provide feedback.
