removing internals from boo-yaah

[Psybuster]

I'm wondering how to remove the internals from the boo-yaah so i can polish the frame, it's all about the bling and hostages hybrid emags are exactly what i want to do.

heh, thanks, but if you are talking about the shinny one it is chrome/nickle plated and not polished. Polshing will make it look nice, but it is a pain to upkeep.

If you're taking it completely apart do it carefully. There are little spacers between the circuit board that are kinda small. The pin that holds the trigger and the other ones (can't remember whether they hold the switch or solenoid) just push out. The buttons on the back come out easily when you pull the circuit board out. That's all I can remember, my frame is off being anodized!

wait how do i remove the blue buttons in the back?

[ChucktheMAGician]

They come right out when you remove the board.

i can't remove the board because the blue buttons are in the way.

Mine popped right out after I removed the screws. You may need to push the buttons thru and pull up on the other side of the board at the same time. Mines not here so I can't put it back together and see where you might be having a problem, sorry, hostage should know for sure tho!

i can't push the buttons through, if i do that and pull on the board it seems like i'm going to break the board so i stop doing that. but yeah i'll just wait for hostage before i try anything wacky...but i'll be uber happy if everything goes out right, my mag will bling dog pimp

After you take out the screws, bend the capacitor up and out of the way. Next you will want to remove the plastic holder piece (grey looking) it should be over where the wireing harness plugs in. You might have to push the board up and then slide it towards the LCD. After that you should be able to just pull it out with ease. The main thing that can get in the way is the compacitor. Just FYI, I have seen many boo-yaahs that have had different wireing and some with or with out the grey peice, so you might not have to worry about that. LMK.

Looks nice! I'd put a plug in that ASA tho. Is it just sanded and polished or does it have some clear coating/anodizing on it?

[Psybuster]

it's all sanded and polished...all parts polished with 3 coatings of mothers mag polish

Is that really the name brand of a polish? I'm having a time getting my bodies to shine really well so that you can't see the little lines in them.
