The Game Boy Color has, so far, been stuck with subpar options for illuminating its screen. Is this backlight kit from BennVenn the solution everyone's been hoping for?

UPDATE: Just before this video went live I found that BennVenn has made pre-modded Game Boy Color shells available -- this will dramatically reduce the amount of work that this mod requires: https://bennvenn.myshopify.com/products/custom-gbc-shell-for-101-lcd
