- Fine Sandpaper (optional)- Ruler
- Drill Piece (smallest you have)
1. Here's the body cap I got off ebay; you can sand off the logo if you want
2. the back
3. use the ruler to help you find the center of the cap
4. I pushed out this much lead so I can parallel with the ruler
5. draw out a few lines to find the center; its not right in the middle of the "O"
6. get the drill piece and start hand drilling in the center
7. stop drilling when you see a bit sticking out on the other side; its at the left part of in the "n"
8. here's the pin i used; the other option is needles
9. poke the pin through
10. poking with just the end or poking the whole pin through doesn't make a big difference
- and you're all done within a few mins- you might want to put your fingers around the inside of the cap to sand out the poor finishings to make a perfect fit
- be careful of the sand dust in case it gets into the sensor
- good way to see if there's any dust on your sensor
- something cheap and fun to try
- will post some results later
