###Contents of Package

4 switches

4 pieces of double stick tape

Instructions to visit a website that doesn't actually have any information on it
1 pogo pin
###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. The pogo pin is listed as optional, but I don't know what that means. It appears to be installed between the two boards. Here is a photo of one fully assembled so you can see where it goes.
