Talking

Blake:
This mod is a piece of cake. If you can type with one finger you can do it. Just use a pointed 15W iron and solder with silver (Not silver solder)
a little dab will do ya and viola, done deal.
Just ask Jose.

Ya man, the difference is literally less than a dollar or $100 dollars with you can save that $99 and spend it on something else!
