Basically you solder the right points on the controller's board to the matching points on the console motherboard. You're replacing the original controller cable and connectors with some wire.

there are two ways to do it. one way is to take the original controller board, solder it to the mobo, and extend the buttons to where you want them. alternatively, sometimes you can build a controller from scratch, then just solder that to the correct points.

and just for reference, use proper'ish english. people will be much more likely to take you seriosly, and not treat you like a noob. (you probably are noob, but just read the stickies, and listen to what people say. you probably wont be a noob for long.)
