The Hori PS4 VLX thread

@darksakul the stick is in excellent condition. The seller bought another stick so he didn’t need the VLX anymore. The seller is jake8525

It was a Kuro, which is much less rare than any of the others, hence the lower price.

That’s an OG red/white VLX with a Kuro VLX panel.

I did that to my OG VLX also.

Really want to hunt down Diamond for a steal :o

Where do you guys get the Kuro VLX panel from?

Forum members who pull the panel off and sell it.

To all the members that reassurred me not to worry about the lag/latency issues. I really appreciate all the information. To a person like me who knows absolutely nothing about lag/latency gave 100% stock to Teyah’s tests. I’ll post pics when my stick comes!

Thanks. I’ll post a WTB in the trading outlet - won’t like my chances to ship to Australia though

Is it a full panel or just artwork? I don’t even know how the artwork comes off

The panel comes with the artwork directly attached; you don’t need to remove the artwork to remove the panel.

I have an OG VLX and I purchased a Kuro VLX and swapped the top panels. I recently purchased a Hayabusa VLX top panel from another user here on SRK and put it on my Kuro VLX case.

All the VLX version part’s are all interchangable.

Dont leave me fantasizing, post some pics!!!

pics pics pics!!

Thanks for the info now to sort one out and hope someone will ship to AU :slight_smile:

Yeah I saw the thread in the trading forum and saw that panel FS

I want to get a Diamond VLX and take parts of the case and add it to my OG VLX eventually.

Yes the panel just unbolts from the inside, and the art work comes with it.
Great thing about getting replacement panels is, you can make new art work come with it.

@Digital- Nice work!

How would I go about repainting the top panel? I’m a paint scrub, but would like to learn just in case!

this may have been covered but has anyone tried sticking soundproofing to the inner case wall to dampen the hollowness? I’m going to be getting the new VLX, my OG definitely has some sound vibes that keep people up a little more than my TEs. Before i buy all that foam stuff i was curious if anyone’s tried it?

People tend to use acoustic foam, like this http://www.amazon.com/Acoustic-Foam-2-1-24-18/dp/B0002ZPLP2

Personally I tried it and didn’t really like it too much, but I may try it again because I didn’t have much experience with my VLX at the time.

A couple of things:

Jasen (of Jasenscustoms) has listed his VLX to Brook Converter PCB board (solderless, non-destructive!) for sale on his site: http://www.jasenscustoms.com/Hori-VLX-Upgrade-Kit_p_110.html
(Jasen, you’re the man. You’ve inspired me to do my own work on controllers - more on this soon!)

My VLX has arrived recently but I haven’t had a chance to look at the insides yet - I’m concerned about the non-detachable USB cable. Anyone modded one to make it detachable? Is it easy to do?

I was like dude you have the same bed sheets as me & then i realize that was my stick haha.

Here are my vlx set, im still thinking if i should pick up the newest one.
