WARNINGS:

  • You do not need to purchase a separate lens. Removing pre-adhered lens from LCD can result in damage to the LCD and will void product warranty. If you received an extra lens in your order, this was likely a included plastic lens with a shell and should NOT be placed on top of the pre-adhered lens.
  • Test before installation! When you receive a backlight/LCD kit, you should perform a dry run before installing to assure that nothing has been damaged in transit. A dry run or test fit means the kit is not installed in the shell. This includes the use of adhesives, brackets, and any performed soldering. All ribbon cables should have no bends or creases in them. If you are unsure how to perform a dry run, please contact our support team and we will be happy to help. Backlight kits that have been installed are not eligible for replacement or return.
  • LCD may break if put under too much pressure or dropped. Please exercise extreme caution when installing.
  • Damage to console or LCD may occur if you do not trim the cartridge port pins. Exercise caution when trimming pins, wear eye protection to protect from pin debris when cutting the metal. Damage caused by these pins are not covered under our return or exchange policy. Trim the pins of your Gameboy's cartridge slot flat so that they don't interfere with any parts of the kit. We also recommend placing some Kapton tape over the trimmed pins to prevent any shorts.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Victoria ★★★★★

I was worried about a tricky install, but the no-soldering requirement made it a breeze, and the OSD menu is a nice bonus for tweaking settings. The 2.45" display is a perfect fit and looks way brighter than the original screen.

Carter ★★★★★

The laminated lens makes the screen look flush with the shell, and the colors are so much richer than the original. I installed it in about fifteen minutes with zero soldering, and the OSD lets me tweak the brightness to match whatever game I'm playing. Honestly feels like a modern console now.

Isabella ★★★★★

The OSD menu is a nice touch for tweaking brightness on the fly, and the 9-to-1 pixel mapping keeps those classic sprites looking crisp. Colors feel much more vibrant than the stock screen ever was.
