I havent bricked my ta-082 i just wana have a lil project and replace the ta-082 with a 1.5 compatable motherboard. Does any1 know a reliable source where i can purchase psp motherboards? Ive googled it a few times but most of the stuff is companies wanting to install the motherboard for me. i want to do it myself. Any links guys?

Ebay has quite a few listings from hong kong for $79.99 but it says the MBs "usualy" ship with 1.5 motherboards which could end up with me having another ta-082.

Thanks

do you just need to screw in the motherboard, or is there soldering and other things involved?
