received this morning bottom left corner covers the screw hole though is it safe to trim it down?

Um... it should line up with the screw hole. There's nothing important running through there, but do you have a photo?

It's my fault not yours, my switch was already in place so it doesn't line up I can't get it out now so just wondered if it was safe to trim. Again my fault not the design of the board at all!

Oh, I see. If the switch is hot-glued in, you might want to use some isopropyl to get the switch out easily. But yes, you should be ok to trim that corner. If you hold the board up to the light, it's thin enough that you'll see the traces inside.

Thanks just wanted to say again just in case, this is my fault and nothing to do with the board it's due to my heavy use of hot glue

Taken a lot of my GBZ out now as I ordered the AIO so will take a while to test it

Just an update, got my switch out and put it all together properly quick pic of it installed using the guide by a3k4

Nice @Mischief!! Looks great

@camble: So just to confirm, these switches would work with the circuit?

Hopefully the boards come in soon!

[Camble]

@Ganreizu Yep, but the boards come with switches.

I requested mine without any since I have these already but if it does it doesn't matter since it's less work for me. I'll just take the switch off the board that i'll use the DMG switch with.
