I finished my region mod tonight, works great so far. I figured I would post some things I learned that are not in the standard faqs floating around.

1. Get some 30gauge wire. This made my life so much easier using this wire (first time I wired it with solid core wire that wasnt flexible, didnt work either lol). I got mine here:

Wire Link

2. You can get the switch here:
8PDT - Push On / Push Off Maintained Contacts

3. Here is how to wire the switch:

4. I used a 15W radio shack soldering iron.

My final results, I didnt put the shield back on, not sure about that one.

Yeah, I wasnt happy with how spread out the wires were, but it works =) I wired the hucard slot first and the switch second. It would of probably been cleaner if I did the opposite. Not sure, I just hope it keeps working
