Well i decided to pick one of these up and i did get the chrome one. Which after i got eveything together i wish i would of went with a different color because now i can see all the fingerprints that i leave on it. But other then that it was very easy to install (minor soldering required) Reasonable priced from $24.95 to $29.95.

Other thoughts the light button was a sweet idea for this i can turn it off when ever, so i am not wasting any battery and since i have the nyko rechargable ones they last pretty long with this on. Each button that light's up are easy to see even when the lights are off and the A,B,X,Y are labeled on them to.

The buttons that light up are:A,B,X,Y,LB,RB, Xbutton in the middle(Power Button) The start button and back button. But the LT and RT do not light up. Very simple to install as said before i have some pics below. U dont have to be a Soldering Expert to install this mod.

I would Rate this product a 8 out of 10 only because it does not come with instructions on how to install everything and i would not advise to get the chromed one because of all the finger print marks that you leave on there unless you dont care ha.

Comes with the Controller the LT,RT buttons and the rest are installed to the top part of the controller itself. Also comes with the Security T8 Torx to open up the controller a plus for sure. To find instructions www.llamma.com has a very good detail set. I also have showed all the pics through the process and included a couple of llamma's because they had really detailed pics.

Parts needed to install
1.Soldering Iron
2.Solder
3.Phillips Screw Driver
4.A Security T8 Torx if somehow yours did not come with one
5.About 15-30mins of time

6. SORRY I PUT THE PICS IN THE WRONG ORDER START FROM THE BOTTOM AND GO UP. This is my Fault ha i thought i had to put them in from the last one to the first one ha. but anyways start from the bottom of the pics and go up with them.
