First you need to drill a 3mm (3/32"-1/4") hole in the "o" on Tone. This is where you'll mount the D5 LED. Then drill a hole for your toggle switch. Mine was 15/64". Use hot glue to hold the LED in place, bolt the switch on and start to reassemble the pedal. Look back at the disassembly picture if your not sure how things go together.

Then feed the wires for the stomp switch through the pedal and resolder the purple wire to 17 and the black wire to 13.

I've done the mod, and it sounds awesome!

The only problem I'm having is the bypass. It seems to work (the blue led goes out) but I still hear the distorted sound slightly (like some of it is leaking into the clean signal) and the signal is very quiet and also changes when I move the volume/gain control. It felt like something snapped when I was tightening the nut on the volume pot, but I could't see any broken parts or solder joints...

Any ideas?
