Review: Challenging install but great product! - These look great. I had two matching pairs of boring grey joycons. Now one pair is a grey transparent with colourful buttons! Installation was tricky (which I kind of enjoy - working on small electronics is satisfying for some people!). I broke one joycon while installing - I think I must have shorted out the main board on it. Take your time installing! The right controller is much more complicated than the left, so maybe start with the left and figure out what you're doing then go to the right one. Fortunately a replacement joycon was inexpensive on ebay and on my second try they both seem to work great. Installation was not a fault of this product, they supply replacements for all of the screws and springs, as well as good quality (especially for the price) screwdriver and bits for the job. Would do this again! Would just be a little more careful the first time! Thanks !
Review: Not the easiest swap - I've modded my 3DS and GBA SP, as well as various controllers and the right joycon is one of the more difficult swaps I've done. If you are patient and gentle and follow a video guide you should be fine. Just a few things of note: There are about 6 tiny and fragile ribbon cables with tiny clips on each joycon. They all detach and reattach differently, which is why I reccomend a video (or take a video/pictures of how and how far the cables go in before they are clipped in place. Some have bumps to indicate, others do not. I had two I thought were in place pop out as I went on to the next step. Again, why I reccomend a video over a quick guide with some pictures. The rz and lz require a little force to remove from the old piece so I held my breath a little there. Other than that it wasn't too bad and the left joycon is much easier than the right so maybe do that first to get an idea of what's to come with the right one. Only weird thing was there are these 4 screws that form a square and 2 screws are short and 2 are long, so don't mix those up. Overall looks great and feels as good as the priginal buttons, but the D-Pad feels amazing compared to the original 4 button setup. I ended up using all the original screws but it comes with everything you need (even springs) as far as I can tell.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best quality replacement shells ever.
*by A***R on March 22, 2026*

The Shells replacement from eXtremeRate are the best shell replacements in the market, the offer some options for the aesthetic of the control, some buttons to be replaced with a different color or like in the joycons, changing the awful left joycon individual butons for the D-pad, to a real D-pad, you have different color options as well, transpared or solid colors, the build quality is really good, the plastic is firm and solid, is not cheap plastic like other options.
