Wiikey fusion adapter board 3.3v in from rev c gc??

[Gamerlolwind]

hay everybody,
gamerlolwind here
I'm very puzzled about the 3.3v in for the wiikey fusion,

the pin 32 on the newheven adapter board goes to 3.43v in (actually 3.3v, but the power comes from the gc motherboard)

my point is, for rev A/B's you get the 3.3v in from the power reg area, but on rev c motherboard (DOL - 101) which is what i have,
where do i get the 3.3v in for pin 32 from a rev c gc board?

can someone label the place i can solder the wire from pin 32 that gives 3.3v on my gc rev c pic, please? it would help me alot

also, do i need to use a different wire for the 3.3v? or use the ide wire that's already wired to it?

3.3v on a rev c can be taken from the spot marked in my pic here:

Here is a pic of the original board. You will solder the 3.3v from the Wiikey to the spot marked as a purple circle in the pic above , which is on the bottom of the round blue part marked 100 on the pic below.

yeah, thanx for the info, Hail!!
i'll use both of your diagrams for 3.3v,
thanx

but since the solder point is underneath the blue capsule thing 100 marked, does that mean that to solder my wire from pin 32 of the new heaven adapter i have to remove/desolder this small component??

or can i solder next to it without removing the capsule? there won't be any harm if i remove it?
does the cube need that blue 100 marked capsule for the 3.3v input to function??

The blue part needs to stay there if you are not using custom regulators. Just solder next to it. It's fairly easy to get to the solder pad.

yep, i found the solder pad yesterday while was removing the dd connetor, the little black part with the gold/sliver metal things is still there, but i trimmed the metal things as low as i could.

both solder pads pf the 100 marked part for 3.3v look hard to get at, but i'll have to solder carefully on one of them.

they won't be any problem if i leave them there?

i'll solder the adapter wires on the bottom side of the gc.
also if i solder the wires on the bottom side then if i solder the pin 32 wire to the 3.3v in on the top side, it'll work fine?

Sorry for reviving the thread but , I'm trying to look for the 3.3v line and when I put my voltmeter there I get 12v. I'm using the 12v ground but I don't think it could be that. Is that right?
