eXtremeRate DIY Joy-Con Replacement Housing Kit for Nintendo Switch & OLED

Replace deteriorated ergonomics without purchasing fresh peripherals by transferring your existing sensor modules into these precision-molded plastic shells engineered specifically for standard Nintendo Switch and OLED models.

The package delivers two complete outer frames alongside every required fastener, center mounting tray, and actuator. The textured polymer surface resists moisture accumulation and maintains consistent friction during continuous input sequences. Internal circuitry stays completely independent; this assembly exclusively manages external geometry, tactile mapping, and structural integrity.

• Left and right Joy-Con chassis with midline support platforms
• Complete actuator inventory covering A, B, X, Y, directional pad, ZL, ZR, plus paired SL/SR switching contacts
• Fabrication hardware pack containing PH00 and Y00 drivers, 33 retention screws, and six recoil springs

Executing this modification requires intermediate handling proficiency and deliberate pacing. Four exterior triangle fasteners mandate a tri-wing driver, whereas flexible ribbon connections necessitate calibrated tweezers to prevent contact pin damage. The ZL and ZR pathways utilize dynamic compression springs that shift orientation during teardown, and final trigger crispness depends entirely on calibrated screw tension during closure. Builders typically allocate three hours or more when following frame-by-frame references from the YouTube identifier "o8QPB2uTbHk". Opening the original unit permanently cancels factory warranty eligibility.

Selective art editions incorporate solid-color button matrices that intentionally exclude the L, R, Plus, Minus, and Home navigation cluster. Review gallery thumbnails prior to checkout to verify your chosen aesthetic includes those critical function keys. Distinct pattern series also ship with marginally altered interior support brackets.

Organize removed hardware immediately, strip protective films from adhesive zones before seating, and verify ribbon cable alignment mirrors initial extraction paths before applying final cover plate pressure.

Installation Tips：

Installation difficulty: High

Time spent: 3 hour or more

Patience needed: High

Go slow. Check every connection. Keep your screws organized.

Watch a YouTube video on how to do it though, pausing and replaying often.

When you are reassembling the Joy cons you must be conscious of how tight you are tightening the screws as that will affect how your buttons press.

When removing the Joy con outer screws make sure you are using a Tri-wing screwdriver. Be careful not to strip the 4 outer triangle screws or over tighten any screws.

There are multiple very delicate ribbon cables that need to be removed and reattached.

Use tweezers instead of bulky fingers at all time to help with the little pieces that you'll take to move to the new case.

Note that the ZR and ZL on the Joy cons are spring loaded so be careful when opening.
