Enhance Your Nintendo Switch Console with eXtremeRate Clear Atomic Purple Back Plate: Full Set Buttons & Controller Housing Replacement Shell DIY Kit Review

If you decide to follow the YouTube instructions for changing the case, DO NOT REMOVE ANY RIBBON CABLES! The tutorial shows you need to remove the ribbon cables, but you don't need to remove them at all. Because of their midday video I broke my left joycon and I learned from my mistake during the second run and I successfully replaced the housing on my right joycon WITHOUT removing any wires. That stupid video aside, I have to say the case is amazing and almost flawless. The design doesn't…

Great skin for my switch. The color is exactly as described (pink sakura) and the soft-touch surface feels very comfortable! I used my own tools as I found some of the screws difficult to tighten with the ones provided. Installation took a little while but was easy enough to follow the YouTube videos. I also recommend adding a pair of tweezers if you're just using the tools provided, as this is useful for reinserting ribbon cables into JoyCons. Overall, I'm now very happy with the color and…

God I just love this case. I will order a few more colors. Took me an hour and a half or two from start to finish. Joycons took the most time. Each of them lasted about 40-45 minutes. It's just ten minutes back. Be careful with the innards of joycons. But it's still very easy. I'm doing this for the first time. There are no instructions, but I don't need instructions. It's kind of basic common sense. My God. But I love this business. My favorite color is pink so I highlighted it with a pink…

I really like these skins. They're durable, stand up to heavy use, and really add some personality to your Switch. I have attached a picture of three switches, 2 with housings and 1 bearing. A word of caution, as others have said, this is NOT the easiest of projects. Over the years I've swapped out iPad screens and disassembled MacBooks and iMacs as well as various other electronics. While it's not as hard as some of these projects, it's definitely there. There are some very small screws and…

Pros:+ Installing this kit was no problem. The tools provided have served their purpose.+ The surface is soft to the touch. No obvious defects.+ Comes with extra spare screws and Phillips buttons.+ Joy-Con replacement parts (including buttons) are molded exactly like Nintendo's, so they fit perfectly. Cons: - The tools provided are quite small. Can be a bit awkward to use. Neutral: • I hope they release more color options. Pretty limiting at the time of this review. (Not that I'm complaining…

Amazing stuff. The fit and finish are on a whole different level than the original shell. Combined with a pair of skull shaped grips, my WHITE shifter looks and feels sooooo good. A couple of notes if you plan on doing this yourself: the old screws are very brittle and the plastic mold isn't pre-threaded so you're more likely to rip the screws off when I put them back in place. Use the screws included in the kit, they are better than the original screws. Be prepared to buy another set if you…
