## Description

desertcart.com: eXtremeRate DIY Replacement Shell Buttons for Nintendo Switch & Switch OLED, Chameleon Green PurpleCustom Housing Case with Full Set Button for Joycon Handheld Controller - Console Shell NOT Included : Video Games

Review: A very smooth, quick, and easy installation. - The ONLY problems I have with this set are that the purple reflection is very dull, and that the outermost screw holes are very tight and leads to accidentally stripping the screws if you tighten it too fast and loosely. Otherwise, the shell and buttons were very easy to install. The inner screws were way easier to loosen and tighten than the outer ones. The shell molds were also very high quality, as the circuitry of my original Joy-Cons fit into these new shells snuggly. The end result, of course, was a great controller mod that both looked and felt great, as the material used to make the shells and buttons are also of high quality. The buttons feel great to press, and the remote itself feels nice to hold. The spare springs, screws and screwdrivers were also a great addition to add to this bundle, as those itty bitty parts are very easy to lose. If I plan to modify another device's shell, I will certainly buy from this store again.
Review: Tricky install, but so worth it! - This is not a protective or snap on case/cover for joycons. You actually have to take the original casing off and replace them. My husband did it for me and he got frustrated a few times, but in the end, it was worth it. They’re so pretty and really make my Switch unique! I chose to keep the original black buttons, but it did come with buttons to match the casing. The kit also had all screws and tools necessary to complete the task. As long as you’re prepared for a little work, it’s a great product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So much smoother than I was anticipating!
*by S***A on April 21, 2024*

I want to start this review by saying I do not tamper with electronics and knew this was going to be an intimidating project. However, I have wanted to customize my joycons for a long time, so I took the plunge! This is a really good kit, definitely worth the higher price than some other shells. It comes with a little screwdriver, the shells with the internal plastic battery holder thing, (sorry idk what it’s called) all of the triggers, buttons, and screws you need. That means that if you’re careful, you will have extra buttons and screws. This project didn’t take me hours. After reading the other reviews, I was anticipating a long assembly time. All together, this might have taken me an hour and a half. I used a youtube video instead of the website video that the instructions tell you to use. It wouldn’t have taken me that long if I wouldn’t have accidentally detached the ribbon cable from the motherboard when putting the right joycon’s charge stick back on. If you do accidentally detach the ribbon cables, you will want to use curved tweezers to align and lock them back into place. Overall, I think this kit made the replacement of these joycon shells as easy as it could be. The only things I wish it had that it did not were magnetized screwdriver heads and tweezers with it (I had to use my own). I love the look and feel of these shells. They are soft and don’t feel cheap. Now I’m thinking I want to buy a few more to re-shell a few more pairs I own.
