Soldering

The screen connects via a ribbon cable on the edge of the circuit board and bends around so the screen rests against the flat side. You want the buttons to be mounted on the flat side of the board above the screen. The reflective side of the screen is the back. It's a simple job to solder the buttons in place.

Assembly

The hat requires a Pi B+, A+ or 2B. If you don't have the 40 pins on the board, you likely have an A which is not supported. Here is a photo of one fully assembled so you can see where it goes.

Gizmag Review

The plastic bolts and screws hold the board in place and attach it to the Pi. The double stick tape holds the screen in place below the buttons.
