Review on ๐ŸŒธ Enhance your Nintendo Switch Dock with eXtremeRate Cherry Blossoms Pink Custom Faceplate โ€“ DIY Replacement Shell for a Stylish Upgrade (Dock NOT Included) by Joseph Hamilton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Blue Flame Skull Set (Dock Set)

As a disclaimer I blind-checked the entire project, not looking for disassembly instructions but as someone who enjoys taking things apart to see how they work was one scary but enlightening experience. If you are unsure of your skills, consult a repair shop or friend who can help. That being said, this plate is probably the simplest of the three kits you'll need to set up your entire console. I also replaced the LEDs and the switch itself. It's pretty easy to disassemble. Unlike the other two kits, this one doesn't come with a nice gold multibit tool as shown in my other reviews. Get an LED kit if you want. Move in with the screws and watch where they go, they are different sizes. Be sure to remove the inner panels from the old docking station and insert them here. My tolerances were a little off and I had to push the carriage harder and up to make it fall, but at this point it was my first step so I was very careful. Note, however, if you have a Switch as Animal Crossing that uses a different colored carriage, this kit will not replace it. So, I have a black front panel but white bottom bracket and white tailgate. It's not a problem for me, but it's something to consider if you have a special one. If you're building a complete kit, this is a good first step to getting used to how tools and disassembly work. I have reviews for other components of this kit, just search my photos on Revain Rolodex and you will find them easily!
