I installed Voultar's N64 RGB Mod into my N64 and followed their instructions. I went for the C-Sync over LUMA. I then got a NTSC RGB C-SYNC SCART cable for the N64 and the RetroTink 2X SCART. There is video output but the colors are all messed up. Everything is stable and no other visual problems. When I use the original AV Cables, It is just fine. Here is my meh soldering job. Did I mess up something with C-SYNC or is one of the cables not in the right place?
Here is the Installation Instructions for the Kit.

Your red and black wires are swapped on the N64 PCB. If you look at the instructions the colors of the wires on the mod are yellow, orange, red, and on the N64 yellow, orange, red. Yours are white, black, red on the mod but then white, red, black on the N64 pcb.

Been there, done that. Glad you got it working!
Usually I can manage to avoid that by having the guide / image open on my phone and then trace the wires one by one on both phone and board out. Can take a while with more complex mods but it's well worth my peace of mind double checking everything for 10 minutes before turning it on.

    @SylverReZ I read that non-binary people identify as a blend of male and female. The point is i think i'm a blend of those and thus non binary
