We are a few weeks away from delivery of the final products. If I were wermy I'd wait until all orders are ready to be shipped to release the files. They need these preorders to recoup costs and get compensated for research and development.

Stay tuned and I'm sure you'll hear more.

Not rude - I get it. They will be up at some point, but probably not for several weeks.

I'll have my parts up for pre-order later today as well.

Exactly which parts will you include with the board?

It will come with the screen back and bezel, the button board, the base that goes in the bottom and holds everything in place, and the hinge. Also will include screws.

[*]Tactile switches: 2 for start and select (2.5mm tall including the actual button, 2mm tall without, 6.2mm x 6.2mm base), and 2 for L/R (5mm tall including the actual button, 3.2mm tall without, 6.2 x 6.2mm base)

Are these the same ones from the GBZ?

Nope, those ones were much longer so they could go all the way through the GB case. These ones just need to go through a bit of tin.

@wermy - Are the L/R tactile pushbuttons the same as those inside a DS Lite? Or are the dimensions different?

So incredibly excited for this!! Pre-ordered from the Wermy and Helder links from here in the UK. I didn't know the kit would come with a screen, so I will have a spare from eBay showing up soon I've not done any kind of soldering for over a decade so a little nervous. Hope this will be fairly newb friendly!

Best of luck, guys!
