just a simple mod i did to my dual shock 3 six axis
controller

things needed:
3mm led DONT USE 5mm led will cause a big problem as it wont fit right so the controller wont close right
*edit guess a 5mm can be used but it kept giving me trouble but the 3mm went in without a snag*
solder
solder iron i used a 20 watt solder iron with a pencil tip
hot glue gun

gonna do a rapid fire mod to this as soon as it comes in :)

Nice work, where did ya get the colour changing LED?

nice mod, i have all ready done it but i used a 5mm LED. I had no problems making mine fit. I got mine from Maplin, just google RGB Flash LED.

really i tried with a 5mm led and it kept giving me trouble but as soon as i tried the 3mm it went without a hitch hmm then again i am a n00b when it comes to hardware modding

PS3HAX.net used to actually sell the kit back in the day.

they actually sold the kit? hmmm i wonder how many ppl did they ripped off ? lol just jokin

I believe it was 5 dollars with shipping. The parts at radio shack are pretty cheap. I love that mod. The controllers were meant to have that anyway. I had it on my first dualshock 3 (imported from Japan, got drunk playing CoD and shattered it like a dumba$$)
