The image clearly showed where I could cut and not, and I realised I should have probably just gone with a 11mm FET driver… much easier and more powerful
Was it hard to get the old driver out? How big was the driver? Does it have a separate contact board? Do you have any pictures of that stage of the mod?
The old driver is two stack with a contact board… see pics… , quite small, to get the driver out, I just poked a stainless steel tweezers from the top (after desoldering the star), with a medium press, it just popped out
Forgot to mention, I created a separate contact board by filing a partition board down to size and soldering the leads to the board
