I know someone in Van Nuys (or was it North Hollywood?) who does this out of his house, but he has this website:
www.xbupgrade.com
Nice guy to deal with and responds quickly. Does xbox too.

They are actually easy to get from Target or Toys-R-Us. The trick is to hit the store right when they open on the weekend when their Sat/Sun ads come out. Good Luck.
Yes, they are availble on ebay and also available from mod chip suppliers.

When the ad is in the paper, the store got a shipment. I got several before xmas this way.For those planning on modding, remember the newer wii's use a different mod chip than the earlier ones.

Install prices are nuts on that website. I use mod playstation 1/2 all the time. It's pretty easy once you get the technique down. I haven't modded my wii yet since it's too hard to find a replacement if something was to happen.
