Wii Mod Chips & Tri-Wing Screwdrivers
« on: July 06, 2007, 12:44:08 pm »
have a supply of Wiifree v2.45 wii mod chips as well as Wiinja V2 wii mod chips. I am selling these at $6.25 each shipped right to your door.

Now you can add a tri-wing screwdriver to a mod chip order for $4 (Limited Supply)

Mod chip $6.25 (Shipped right to your door)
Mod chip + Tri-wing Screwdriver $10.25 (Shipped right to your door)
Add a chip socket for $0.50. (A socket allows you to plug in your wii modchip instead of soldering it direct, in cases where you want to upgrade it at some time in the future.)

You can also pick these up in person at a discount (S.E. Michigan).

Installers ask us about bulk order discounts.

Thanks

Mike

Recently purchased a wiifree chip from Hoagie.  Top notch open source code, installed in 8pin IC socket in order to upgrade later.  Under $10 with wire, socket, solder, chip etc.  I don't think you could ask for more.

Tri-wing screwdriver quantities are low, but I have a new stock ordered.  I now also carry chip sockets for $0.50 each.

How do the chip sockets work? Would you have to solder at all?

you have to solder the wires to the DVD drive MoBo and to the socket.  Then you just plug in the chip.  It's for people who want to have access to the chip at a later date for reprogramming or external mounting.

Though hole or surface mount?  Just curious.

I don't have any soldering skills so would need to find a local installer.  Anyone in the so cal area?

there are a couple guys on here that can do mail order work, SNAAKE and Northerngames.  Also OTBMods.com does good work as well.

Yeah I know there are a few guys that can, but I would prefer to get it done locally.  Shipping back and forth will be more than the mod itself especially if you add insurance to it.
