Yes I have, smartass. And I removed the gray piece of plastic at the bottom where the headset gets plugged in. Need to know anything else, like how long it took me to unscrew it?

That would help a lot. Tried looking for more hidden screws? Screws on other parts? Tried looking for parts where it clips on?

If you haven't noticed, jackass, he's trying to HELP you. :roll: Just to fill you in, the nicer you are to people around here, the more likely they are to give you a hand in the future. Jerks don't usually get kind treatment around here, just look at our ban list.

Only ex-jerks like me, are cool. Right? ;)

Hmm, You could always smash it with a big rock. That works.

These things aren't made by Nintendo. There's a very simple thing you're missing. I don't know what it is, but I know it can't compare to Nintendo screws. (I use a hacksaw and some knowledge of where the motherboard lies in the console!)

There is a screw hidden inside the battery compartment under the sticker nearest the terminals.

Sorry Kurt, but usually as you see I'm a new member to the forums. You'd probably want to be a bit more nice and not so sarcastic, kind of keeps people coming back. Otherwise, yes there was a hidden screw. Now I just gotta figure out how to port over the wires from the xbox controller to the 360 board.
