=Tweaking the Modules=
===HifiBerry DAC+ soundcard customizing===
If you are using the HifiBerry DAC+ soundcard (also lite & pro versions), you should add 2 extra connectors to the board:
+ 40 row-pin GPIO male connector, for connecting the '''main ribbon bus cable'''
+ 3 pin header connector, for connecting the extra audio line-out Jack connectors
===PiTFT 2.8' TouchScreen customizing===
If you are using the Adafruit PiTFT 2.8' TouchScreen (or a clonic version) in a standard mounting (standard main ribbon bus and case size), is highly recommended to use the side 26-pin male connector, not the female connector. The main ribbon bus is designed to use the side 26-pin male connector, and the case mounting will be easier if you do so.
====Original Adafruit TouchScreen====
If you have an original Adafruit TouchScreen, probably you have both connectors soldered in the PiTFT's board, so you don't need to solder nothing. The female connector is quite annoying when closing the case, so perhaps you want to remove it using a saw. If you do so, i also recommend to use a vice.
====Clonic TouchScreen====
If you have a clonic version, probably you don't have the side 26-pin male connector soldered in the board, so you should do it. Also, the female connector normally is higher in the clonic versions and more annoying yet, so, you will want to remove it with a saw. If you do so, i also recommend to use a vice.
===Other Soundcards and Displays===
If you are using a different soundcard or display, you'll have to see the best way to integrate it. If you do so, please, don't forget to give good feedbak in the forum or here, in the wiki.
In the forum you can see what other users have done, and of course, don't doubt to ask whatever you want!
