== Introduction == | |||
=== Disclaimer === | |||
Disclaimer: This kit is for advanced installers only. Install at your own risk. We cannot be held responsible for damage to your console and/or kit. | |||
=== Important Information === | |||
The kit is compatible with both DOL-001 and DOL-101 | |||
While the kit will work with the Panasonic Q its not outlined in the this guide. Make sure to grab Jesusburnsneon's [[https://makerworld.com/en/models/1935325-panasonic-q-gamecube-retro-gem-hdmi-mount#profileId-2077945:Q adapter]] if you are doing a Q. | |||
The doc assumes you are doing a no cut (Replace analog or digital port) installation in your GameCube. | |||
If you are upgrading an existing GCDual or other installation and wanting to do the case cut you will need the 3D printed spacer [[https://docs.pixelfx.co/GEM_PRINTS/GCDUAL_MOUNT.stl]] to mount. | |||
Blueshell3D has created a very nice [[https://www.printables.com/model/1244072-gamecube-replacement-rear-io-panels-for-retrogem:3D printed backplate]] that allows for full-size HDMI in the GCDual cut location. This is a great option for people wanting to keep both ports while keeping full size HDMI at the same time. | |||
