Use either X2 5035 (v16_plus), or a customized version of m8plus_16.

Hey all! I checked my mail today and guess what was there? My chip WOOOHOOO!!! I went and opened it up and it came with an extra part I did not expect! I think it's referred to as an lpc rebuild board? I looked at it used a little common sense and if I understand it right, it looks like it goes on the bottom of my mother board connecting to the pin header. My question is am I right with that thinking? Do I solder the contact points on the outside of the rebuild board as well as to the header?
Once again thanks for any and all help, I want to make sure I'm doing this right? And I figure it's better to ask a lot of questions before I do it. That way I'm less likely to have to ask repair questions. Thanks.

Yes you solder the points on the outside of the board to the corresponding points on the Xbox Mobo.
I use wires for the rebuild rather than the boards.
If you can solder either way is ok, but the boards are not as easy if you have to troubleshoot a problem underneath.

Ok that makes sense about using the wire method instead. What size wire?
Also on the links in your sig I read "On Xbox Version 1.6 a glitch in Flashbios 3.03 means the box may boot with a blank screen and require sometimes 20 reboots in order to get the flash screen to appear."
Does this mean for sure you have access to flash bios after 20 reboots? or is this on the maybe side? Like it might work it might not? Thanks.

30awg wire is fine.
Flashbios can be hit or miss. Its not nailed on that it will ever boot the flash screen on some 1.6 boxes.
Sometimes it works straight off
