I've watched several of your modding videos and may I just say I sincerely appreciate how humble and real you are about your experiences installing these mods, seeing an accomplished KZfaqr who has the courage and humility to not only tell us about but even SHOW his missteps to thousands upon thousands of people reminds us all that even those who are the best in their craft make mistakes, and sharing the mistakes can often be of more benefit then all the accomplishments. I'm currently getting ready to mod my GameCube and this is one that I am certain to get, I don't have a TV that has analog video ports anymore but I don't want some cheap-looking, improvised solution (like the adapter you showed at the start). I'd rather pursue the challenge and go for something that looks more elegant and professional, even if I'll probably screw it all up in the process. But with things like this, it's the journey that matters more than the destination. Thanks again for showing off this amazing hobby.

ChipQuik is a brand name, removal alloy is the low melt solder you used. Also if you're working with a large area like the digital port, you'll want to use a bigger nozzle on your hot air station. Bigger nozzle means you heat, and keep heated, more of the board at once.

This video was super helpful. I used a desoldering braid on the digital port first, then snipped the headers off as flat as I could. One more pass with a desoldering braid after that and the dvi port came out so easy with my rework heat gun. Also, instead of trimming off that much of the metal RF shield, I snip the end to leave a leg to secure that side of the shield. Looks a little better too on a transparent console.
