The old Afterburner and Halo modifications for GBAs were front-lights, as were the original GBA SPs. Similarly, lighting mods to Game Boy Color must be front-lights.
However, the old game boys can be backlit. You just have to remove the reflective layer from the back surface of the LCD and put in a light. The typical mod seems to be LED lights with a clear plastic light guide.
@ratchetxrc I wrote up a useful diagram for it, and I think NeX made a guide by now. I think I'm going to buy another and make one for Game Boy Pocket.
Why dont you do a hex mod to improve the contrast for the other colours?
I can do basically every mod for the gameboy apart from this :o(

It looks like you cut the hole for the dip switch with a butter knife.
Just teasing. This is really cool. I think I'll get one once they go on sale.
