Has anyone tried taking apart the new 360 controller?

You'll need to pick up a T6 torx security screw driver before you can open it up; standard hex bits that come in security kits won't fit due to the shape of the Xbox controller. The screw recessions in the grips are too deep.

I'm assuming they use the same T6 security bits as the other controllers.

Unless you're just curious to see what the insides look like, you might just be better off color keying the buttons with lacquer paint instead.

Ah, didn't realize you needed a specific screwdriver, I'll have to look into seeing how expensive they are.  If I can't find one for more than a few dollars I probably won't bother.

About $5. I don't think that covers shipping though, so look locally if you have a major computer parts store in your area. Radioshack only carries security torx bit kits which have hex key adapters that don't fit unless you're willing to drill out and widen the screw recessions.
