I guess you live up to your name then 🙄. It seems harder than it is because he has more shakes than an alcoholic

LazyQueen :p I was thinking the same thing. I am quite disappointed. 😩

Wdym harder its not that hard

[@chefthewizard2856]

Oh dang, I thought all the major components would be attached to the bottom shell.. 😭😭 this gonna be harder than I thought

Take it slowly and you will have it finished in no time :D

I thought they would've been too...

Thank you Anime Kun! I'm glad you like my videos because i enjoy making them. Its always great to read a nice comment like yours :D

[@scottcguynn3282]

No

[@rohansadhu2983]

I just realised you have to almost take apart the whole controller to just remove a ribbon thing and a screw.

[@chrisarbour]

That's with changing every shell. I changed my Switch Lite's shell from the Aquamarine to the Atomic Purple like the N64 controller and holy shit. Go watch a video for that one. That was the sketchiest thing i've ever done in my life lol.

[@rohansadhu2983]

@@chrisarbour lmao, I own a switch lite and I understand why u think that. Congrats to you for doing that tho:)

[@QueenSharks]

Thank you for your help with this tutorial! At first looking at the reviews for the shell and people saying the installation isn't easy- I was worried but your tutorial made everything so smoothly! I love my new controller!

[@rem2386]

Honestly I would be paranoid that I would ruin something trying to change it 😅 But it is something handy to know.

[@LevelOneGamer]

If you ever want one changed or tips let me know :D

[@NicVandEmZ]

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO

[@SpaceBandit666]

@14:24 I just used a strip of washi tape, folded it onto itself and taped the ends to the strip to "extend" it and guide it though. OH and thank you for this video, my mod was successful! Had to look up other videos on on how to change out the trigger buttons before continuing this video and it really made me appreciate the quality of your video- everyone elses was blurry, far away, dark, no audio/hard to follow

Best tutorial I’ve seen yet, imma try ❤️

[@LevelOneGamer]

Thank you :D

[@Noah-hx9oi]

If anyone is worried about doing this. I'm 14 and clumsy (and I know this is cliché) but if I can do it I'm sure you can. Just keep track of where you put stuff I recommend: - A PH00 Screwdriver - Tweezers (I didn't really need them) - A place to put the screws Go slow, this took me around 3 hours in one sitting. Good Luck.

[@scottmiller7284]

Great video, going to try this out myself!

Good instructions this video. Step by step and clear. I tried this but realised my controller was little different components and holders and also realised the golden shell was too big for inside of controller

[@gamingdamien1204]

Thanks for the tutorial i used it to switch the ps4 buttons

The Xbox controller is so much easier than this! I was going to get a matching shell but no way 😭

What a humble and nice guy

[@kevinmonson775]

SUPER helpful thank you!

[@iamhades5394]

You dont really need a pry tool, just apply opposite pressure to both sides of the controller, and then the shell will pretty much just pop off, ive used this technique on both of my controllers.

[@delarnomorgan6216]

Thank you so much bro your video helped me alot !!

Thank you so much it really helped me out and it was also easy!!!!

That ribbon cable scares the hell out of me, all I'm trying to do is swap the back casings on my regular black PS4 controller in my magma red PS4 controller so that way I can have a PS4 controller that looks more like the wave one red PS4 controller

[@The-OtherHalf]

Me to one wrong move u done fucked up

[@lanternnnnn]

Your supposed to push the blue card bit up with your finger and pull it out with your fingers not fkn pliers thats how you wreck it. This guy doesnt know what hes doing

[@KillerHairKillerHairRocks]

This was super helpful dude thanks!!

[@LevelOneGamer]

Cool! :D

[@KillerHairKillerHairRocks]

@@LevelOneGamer also how do you change the back shell? Is it kinda the same process?

[@LevelOneGamer]

@@KillerHairKillerHairRocks the back shell unscrew the bit holding the light bar and slide the pieces out. Then another screw for the connecter. Just remember where everything goes or take a photo before doing it. :)

[@yoramvdwetering04]

Thank you my controller looks awesome right now

[@PurpleWhateverz]

take the screw out first before trying to yank off the battery compartment, saves you time

[@swklemmy]

The only reason I watched this is to take my front plate off so I can hydro dip it but this is still very helpful

[@freemind2025]

you sure like touching that controller. I replaced mine from a broken one I also had, and was done before the video finished. Helpful video indeed

Watching this video was such great help thanks so much ☺️

THE SCREW BIT IS THE HARD BIT. I think they glue the new PS4 controller screws in or something because no matter what I do they won't budge.
