Installed my wiikey last night. Lifted 2 pads from the dvd, so I had to solder the wires onto the chip itself.
Let me tell u, not fun. What should have been an easy 1 hour job, took me 6 hours. But finally got it done.
Sorry, no pictures, but doesn't look much different from the other chip solders pics that have been posted.
The best advice I can give people is to get a hands free magnifying glass before installing. I ended buying one after I lifted those 2 pads and had to solder the wires onto the chip legs. If I had the magnifying glass in the beginning I wouldn't have had those problems.
Anyways, everything works great. Getting a few DREs here and there, but overall very happy.
