Is it possible to open it up so that you can see the mouse wheel? Mine needs some lubrication since it's making a squeaking sound as soon as I use the mouse wheel. Level of annoyance is over 9000!
Hi @andned,
Never gave it a try as long as mine doesn't need it. It is a pretty expensive mouse so I wouldn't like to damage it.
The purpose of this guide was to demonstrate how easy customizing the mouse is easy.
Give us your feedback if you managed to do it :)

I actually did :) my purpose was to demonstrate how easy it was to customise the mouse.
