eXtremeRate Soft Touch Grip Back Plate for Nintendo Switch Console, NS Joy con Handheld Controller Housing with Full Set Buttons, DIY Replacement Shell for Nintendo Switch - Black: desertcart.co.uk: PC & Video Games

Review: High quality mod-job kit! - The switch is passing down from our 13.5 year old boy to our 4.5 year old girl for Xmas. He didn’t look after it too well and had a lot of scratches and his left joy con was drifting, the joy cons also weren’t securing to the switch as strong as they used to. Came across ExtremeRate products on desertcart and realised I would be able to do a complete re-shelling and fix up of the console to make it more girly too. I have little to no experience when it comes to things like this but I have never been too afraid to open things up and give things a try. First of all, I replaced the drifting joy stick, then I swapped out the plastic clips for metal ones before starting on re-shelling the joy cons themselves. It look a little bit of examining and playing about to figure out how it comes apart and goes back together, but it was not overly complex. The came the big job, the console itself. The new case came with a back shell but no front so I opted for white front shell to contrast the rear shell and component some of the white features of the new shell. I initially took apart the entire console, but for bit, mapping out the screws as I went along. I ensured I was meticulous and slow. After doing that I realised that I could have just separated the digitiser screen from the front shell to expose the screws and not dismantled it all. I made I few little mistakes putting it back together, nothing too worrying, so ending up closing and re-opening the console a few times but after some persistence and care I got there. The trickiest part was removing the digitiser, it’s pretty well stuck down and I also didn’t use heat to soften it up but I was gentle and careful. I think the end results speak for itself. It looks amazing and has added a whole new life to a 4 year old console. The warranty is long gone so there was no risk of losing that anyway. The replacement parts are all high quality, even down to the tiniest of screws. I have now ordered some Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut to top up the thermal paste on the heat sink (as it was starting to look a little dried up) just to be sure and keep the console as cool as possible, so one more open up and job done in time for Xmas. Would highly recommend these products! If I can do it, you can too.
Review: You must do this! - Absolutely thrilled with this kit. Just installed it over the weekend and expected the worst to be honest, as my eyesight is not what it was and I'm not exactly known for my steady hand. However, with a bit of patience and forward thinking, not to mention a good clear space and very good lighting, this was largely trouble-free. I'd read all the reviews beforehand and bought a separate console disassembly kit as advised, which came with very useful spudgers and tweezers as well as the proper screwdrivers. It does add a cost to the price you pay for upgrade, but really, even factoring that in it's well worth it. The Switch now looks amazing and completely refreshed. By the end of it I'd surprised myself that I could do this and I think if I can, then I'm very sure you can too. It's not easy and I would advise patience at the trickier bits - I had particular fun with the ribbon cable for the trigger on the right joycon. But just take your time and keep thinking that teeny pesky ribbon WILL go back in! Proper tweezers are invaluable here, as is a good tutorial video on YouTube. I recommend the FetchingTech one since he talks you through most of it very well indeed. Once you've done it though you'll feel proper chuffed with yourself. I've now bought the SNES style dock shell to match and cannot wait to see it all done. Awesome, well made product that will absolutely put a smile on your face!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good bar one issue
*by C***F on 23 May 2025*

Well, this shell is great to work with, everything's within tolerance and fits perfectly together and over the Switch. The kit comes complete with everything you need to a reshell, including screws and every button. I'm giving it 4 stars however for 2 small problems of the same issue - the screw holes. 2 of the screw holes were not formed structural very well and stripped out the inner plastic. And no, I wasn't being heavy handed, and yes, I used the correct (new) screws. The core immediately started to strip out a thin reel of plastic, so the screw would not tighten. Luckily it was a simple fix of using a slightly oversized screw to cure the issue. Maybe it was just a bad shell.
