First off, can I use this model of PS3 eye with a reflective tape setup without having to remove any IR filters or anything? I think I read in another post that the early ones didn't have IR filters, is that correct?
If I do need to remove it, can I do so without messing up the focus or anything like that? Some posts seem to say that they had major focus problems when they removed the IR filter (or a lens with the filter on it), while others seemed to be able to remove it just fine, and I'm not sure which models those people had.
If it helps, this is what mine looks like:
Bottom
Front
Front angle
Also, when it comes to visible light filters, can I just stick the bit of floppy-disc strip over the outside, or do I need to put it in the lens housing somewhow? I'd obvioiusly prefer to avoid mucking about inside it as much as possible.
Finally, would a night vision IR illuminator like
this be suitable for lighting up the reflective tape? Would the light sensor on it cause any issues, or can I just cover that up with a bit of blu-tac?
