It's very nice that you don't have to buy anything else and everything comes in one package.First things first, you need to take some time aside before you attempt to do this project.I was doing it pretty slowly and did not time myself, but it did for sure take me more than 1 hour. I decided to change the case since I was going to be replacing my joysticks with the GuliKit ones and was going to open the console anyway.On their website, you'll find video instructions on how to perform the shell swap. The instructions were super clear and showed every single step perfectly! You will not have to mess around with the screen at all, it's all very simple steps. There are some complicated moments where you have to disconnect some ribbon cables carefully, but besides that everything else is pretty smooth.The plastic of the case feels very smooth to the touch and the buttons are okay too. I have not used it that much yet so I can't say if it scratches easily; mine has not scratches yet so I'll assume it's good.I have decided to keep the original OLED backplate because I like the kickstand more, and it looks good with the design anyway.Good weekend project, nice project, clear instructions, great custom look! 10/10 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top mais pas facile à monter *by on Reviewed in France 4 September 2019* Apres quelques mois d’utilisation, ça tient bien le plastique et l’impression semblent de bonnes qualités, à voir après 1 an ou 2 pour le moment c’est top.Au niveau du montage c'était vraiment pas simple, je le recommande seulement pour quelqu’un qui sait ce qu’il fait avec les bons outils, j’ai du détruire les vis de base dans la switch avec une perceuse de précision pour l’ouvrir parce que j’avais cassé les têtes au tournevis... en résumé j’ai faillis niquer ma console plusieurs fois mais j’ai réussi avec de la patience donc c’est possible et ça vaut le coup! ## Frequently Bought Together - eXtremeRate Grip Back Plate for Nintendo Switch Console, NS Joy con Handheld Controller Housing with Buttons, DIY Replacement Shell for Nintendo Switch - Classic 1989 GB DMG-01 - Mcbazel 18 in 1 Replacement Repair Kit for NS Switch Joy-Con with Screwdrivers Opening Tool, 3D Left Right Analog Joysticks, Buckle Lock, Charging Port Slider, Button Sync Flex Cable Set - AKNES Gulikit Hall Sensing Joystick Replacement for JoyCon, Right and Left Joy Con Controller Replacement Thumb Stick Accessories Repair Kit for Switch OLED/Switch/Switch Lite, No Drift (1 Pair) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/289204968-extremerate-soft-touch-grip-back-plate-for-nintendo-switch-console](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/289204968-extremerate-soft-touch-grip-back-plate-for-nintendo-switch-console) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
