I have more in stock and forgot to update my listing. Experience your music like never before with our Taptic Engine mod for iPods. Enjoy an immersive haptic feedback experience that adds a new dimension to your music listening. The Taptic mod involves replacing the iPod's traditional internal speaker with a Taptic engine, which provides haptic feedback through vibrations. The Taptic engine is a premade mechanism that we provide for you to install in your iPod. The installation process can be technically challenging and depending on the option you choose will require soldering skills. If you're not comfortable with DIY installations, we recommend seeking professional help, or a friend who can solder that you can bribe into helping you. I've developed a method of preparing these so that risk of the solder joints breaking is minimized as much as possible. This is the only reason I've felt comfortable in selling them premade for others who can't or don't want to deal with soldering and preparing a taptic engine. I've just started selling these (April 2023) and have sold a dozen so far and haven't heard anything yet about them arriving broken. Make sure to test the functionality BEFORE you close your ipod's case back up in case something is not right. One tip I've found so far: If the engine is making noise but not producing any haptic feedback; the linear actuator inside of the engine is jammed, and a gentle but firm and precise flick of it with your finger can usually unjam it. This is done at your own risk, though, and should be gentle above all else. Once these are installed the risk of that happening is very low of course, or you'd hear about iPhones constantly needing new taptic engines, but when theyre out in the open and have the potential of being dropped or accidentally banged against something its easy for them to jam. Each unit is tested and confirmed working before shipping, but please note that the Taptic mods are delicate and we are not responsible for any damage done to them by the buyer. We cannot accept returns or refunds due to installation errors. Each order will come with their mod carefully packaged in antistatic bags and include a brief set of guidelines as well as links to online resources for installation tips Choose from the following options: Option 1: iPod Mini Taptic Engine Only Upgrade your iPod Mini with our Taptic Engine mod.

Option 4: iPod Video & Classic Taptic Engine with Pre-Soldered Headphone Jack Upgrade your iPod Video or Classic with our Taptic Engine mod and a pre-soldered headphone jack. This option includes the Taptic Engine replacement and a headphone jack pre-soldered with your choice of thin or thick, black or white. The Taptic Engine has long enough wiring to be able to place it wherever in the iPod you have space (it can reach the bottom of the case if needed) Double Sided Adhesive will be included on the back of the Taptic Engine for your convenience. The installation requires replacing the headphone and hold switch assembly, but not replacing the internal speaker. Soldering skills ARE NOT required. Please note that for all options, the buyer will need to be comfortable with removing the case of their iPod. For the iPod Mini, we cannot sell them pre-soldered to the speaker pads because the speaker is on the logic board and not a separate cable, and as such has to be soldered to your mini by you or a professional in your area.
