Try Craigslist to find someone local because the shipping to a online company will kill you.

Electronics and games+toys seem to be the popular ones for these listings.

There is a search you can do as well. Just search xbox 360.

just do it yourself, i've never even seen a local store sell mod chips anyway. but yea save ur self some doe and just do it yourself its not that hard. the process is called flashing firmware, look it up.

Homesick is right...actually you'll probably spend more money paying someone else to do it when you can do it yourself...all you need is a SATA card with VIA 6421 chipset...(Mines cost 13 bucks)and a flash drive (10 bucks) all in all 23 bucks...and you can flash all you want...You can even charge your friends to flash theirs, earn yourself some money...

I got my Playstation 2 modified at a Chinese mall, I doubt they flash Xbox 360's but I'll call them and ask.

Theres no way I would do anything with solder, I would screw it up for sure haha.

and so the journey begins, with 1 dwarf, 1 elf, 4 hobbits , a 6421A sata card and of course the verbatim discs.

Watch out for hitachi 79 Nazgul/black rider. It will suck away your happiness. Dont fear though gandoff the grey (Sl7Rips) is here, and he will help you continue you quest.

Oh and also make sure you get a sata cable andd that you plug it into the right slot. But thats later.

check out your drive before you buy the VIA chipset. If you have a Hitachi you won't need to worry about the card as long as you have an onboard SATA chipset on your motherboard (most modern computers do).

Also these people seem to have forgotten to mention one of the key items you WILL need to buy. A SATA cable, if you have a Hitachi this is the only item outside of DVD DL's you'll need, and a CD to burn SLAX too.
