Review on Enhanced Sthetix 2021 2 Pack Replacement Bumpers and Button Triggers ๐ŸŽฎ for Xbox One Elite Controller - Superior Durability + Screwdriver Repair Kit Included by Yuri Rochelin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Installation was easy, but not easy. It's still worth it.

I received this kit to replace a defective LB on my Series 1 Elite controller that is out of warranty. This kit contains everything you need. Bumper, center plate, screwdriver, disassembly tool and scraper to remove the serial number sticker (required to unscrew the controller). I found a YouTube video demonstrating the process and I was able to follow it successfully. I swapped the bumpers and they work. I will also say that the appearance is very similar. Nobody can say that the bumpers and the plate are not original. The bad thing is that it was very difficult to install the bumpers and locking plate. The only way I got it to work was to carefully separate the bumpers from the panel with a scraper, snap the bumpers into place first, then put the cover on top. In the video I found the person installed the whole thing but it didn't work for me. The torx driver isn't very strong, so apply pressure gently. I can already see traces of cleaning. It looks like taking the controller apart and disassembling it several times will do the trick. Also, this is not a criticism of the product, but more of a controller. When you first remove the front panel, notice how the 1-2 slider and the green pairing button are set. They can easily fall out and will not be reinstalled in an obvious way. Conclusion - this set corresponded to the declared. Replacing bumpers and all the tools needed to get the job done. The installation process was easy, if not exactly easy. My bumpers are fixed and my controller looks and feels like new.

Pros
  • Waiting
Cons
