Gp32 Flu Questions...

[smerko]

Just a few questions about my gp32_console.

I got the unit secondhand and it has become apparent that the battery cover clip is failing (starting to crack at the 'bend'). Can you get replacements for these?

Secondly my unit is a FLU and the hole for the button on the back of the unit seems a bit 'DIY' to me i.e. roughly filed out or similar... Are they all like this?

Thanks in advance!

thanks for the quick reply!
so is the battery cover a common problem?

Yeah, common problem. When my clip finally broke off completely, I just super-glued it back on and put a very tiny piece of duct tape to secure it. Now I just have to put a little pressure down on the clip and bend the battery cover out, no problems.

wedge some Blu Tac in to hold it

i hated the batt cover when i got my FLU cause i could always feel it was" loose"

i stick a tiny think piece of packing foam (from a motherboard package actually) in between batt's and the cover and it always makes it a "perfect fit" -- and so it never damages or wears, etc
