> 24 hourI got this to replace my original housing that has worn down over the years and it does the job and looks nice. The only frustration I have is that the housing isn’t flush at the joints and while most aren’t too bad, some parts feel uncomfortable to run your hand over it. I may have just gotten one that wasn’t up to the normal standards but that is my only complaint. If you haven’t taken apart the controller before, be aware it will take at least 20-30 minutes to fully take apart and put back together with the new housing. While doing that, I would recommend giving it a nice cleaning since you already have to fully disassemble it and it doesn’t add much time to clean up. Just find a guide to do so if you aren’t comfortable figuring it out and make sure to use a high percentage isopropyl alcohol for any cleaning to prevent corrosion. Additionally, I recommend getting a precision driver instead of using the included screwdrivers. Do they work, technically but you will have less risk of stripping the heads if you use a high quality driver. I personally recommend the Wiha 26194 set of “Phillips Head” aka Cross head as the quality is high and they stand by their tools. #1, #0, #00, and #000 which should handle almost all JIS/Phillips/Cross head screws you will find in electronics.

> 24 hourI’d definitely go with a different color choice, not the best but not terrible.

> 24 hourI had to clean my control stick cuz of the drift and thought might as well change the shell while I’m at it. So glad I got this cuz it gave my controller a new clean look!

> 24 hourVery easy to install. Be aware that if you get done and you see that gap in the middle back part where the LEDs are, its because the little peg that goes into the divot under the battery is a little long. Sand it down carefully with a nail file and it should fit fine!

> 24 hourReally loving it. It was easy to swap the shells. I didnt even need to refer to any guides. The controller now matches my switch beautifully.

> 24 hourFairly easy to install, compared to the joy con shells. Looks and feels great. Probably not the most practical shell to buy for your switch, but still looks great.

> 24 hourPerfect switch pro controller shell, incredibly simple installation with the ribbon cable attachment being the only part that is remotely a hassle. Some parts edges could probably do with a little bit of sanding down but they are fine as is and far from an issue. Overall, looks great and feels great.
