Thank you so much. This inspires me to also revive my classic one day when I have the time for it. I still use it every now and then but the battery life has of course gone down. Didn't know that iPod modding was a thing, hahaha.
My pleasure :) I read about it already a few years ago, but the parts where pretty expensive back then. But now they’re really cheap on AliExpress. Definitely recommend this!
I wouldn't recommend Aliexpress TBH. I highly recommend Elite Obsolete, he sells iPod parts new and old stock (Cases, Motherboards, iFlash Kits, etc.) he even sells fully made pods.
They really do have some nice stuff. Maybe there are some parts I could use for a second one. Do you know if they deliver to Germany?
I honestly do not know if he ships to Germany. At worst you can use a shipping forwarding service.
They do, I tried. I wanted to order a HDD Flex cable for another project, but it’s very expensive. I would have to pay nearly 30€ for shipping while the cable costs around 2€ + taxes. That’s one expensive little flex cable. Was also having an eye on those wine red back covers, but even the back cover is 20€+30€ shipping. That’s 50€ just for a back cover… They really have some cool stuff, but with these shipping costs to Germany I guess I will have to stick with AliExpress.
