The case itself looks fantastic; If it worked properly and matched the OEM case it would have gotten five stars. Unfortunately, this DIY is not for the faint of heart. Follow demolish. There are better ones on youtube. Next comes the product itself. Shapes aren't perfect; My right joycon shape is slightly deformed and the shape of the battery holder actually lowered my R bumper to the point where the button on the circuit board was being pressed the entire time. I had to grind down the OEM button to make it click. The left joy-con shape I found was a bit loose at the top where my L trigger wobbles and wobbles, not like it should. Everything else is fine. The D-Pad is the best part of this product. Disclaimer: Be patient and Y-00 screwdriver (not 0, not 000). Look at other reviews, pictures and videos on YouTube, this purchase is very difficult to justify.
