What is it?

Allows you to add the A/V connectors of the PICO9918 to your TI-99/4A without cutting the case.

Designed to replace the existing 5 or 6 pin A/V DIN connector of your TI-99/4A with a custom PCB which includes the original DIN connector in addition to new VGA and audio connectors.

Note: If you order just the PCB or the kit, I will pre-solder the JST or FFC connector for you. The JST connector is also epoxied to the PCB.

Important: Installation requires you to desolder and remove your existing A/V DIN connector from your TI-99/4A PCB. If you're not comfortable doing this, I suggest skipping this mod.

Enclosure

The enclosure provides the stability. Without it, the entire mod PCB is only held in place with the soldered connection to the original TI-99/4A DIN socket.

When selecting an enclosure, be sure to select the correct color for your system as the design of the retaining fins is slightly different between black and beige systems. If you'd prefer to print your own enclosure, the STLs are available in the PICO9918 GitHub repository

This no-cut kit comes with great extras!

I have recently installed a second PICO9918 with the no-cut mod in my backup TI-99/4A. I had ordered my first PICO9918 from a supplier in the USA, as I am located in northern Virginia. This was my first order through Tindie, and this no-cut mod for the TI-99/4A came with some very nice extras. I had ordered the full kit, with the RCA connectors, and the VGA plug. To my delight, it also came with a 3D printed spacer that fit perfectly on the motherboard, and an 8-inch cable, as well as the standard cable that came with the PICO9918. While I was able to install my USA-sourced PICO9918 in my first TI-99/4A without these extras, the correct sized cable, and the spacer made the second installation much, much easier. Shipping from Australia was a little expensive, as it includes the new tariff, but the package arrived within two weeks. Very pleased with the PICO9918, and the installation kits.
