Step 5SPLICE...THAT...CIRCUIT!
Ok, now you have to de-solder the flash bulb and replace it with two wires (strip them first) ...I would recommend making them TOO long...its easier to cut them down than it is to add more wire. I would also recommend hot-gluing these in place for added durability, just don't use so much that you won't be able to get the case back on.
After you do that you have to use the lighter and a pair of pliers to heat up the end (the sharp one) of the METAL thumbtack so that you can melt a hole through the case in the camera. Don't be a moron and put them somewhere where they'll keep the case from closing, or shock you when you're charging it. Once you have them through bend them up and solder the flash bulb wires to them.
You may also want to add some MORE hot glue here....
Then drill a hole for your button, there was already a hole conveniently placed on mine. =)
Then glue it.
