Hacking NDS Lite case + screen protector recommendations!

[Topsy]

Here's some pictures of my case as I haven't seen it in this thread yet. It's called a Bracket Carrying Case by Capdase - I'm really happy with it. The DS Lite clips to a special clear plastic bracket in the case, so the case is always attached. When you play, the case just flips down and hangs - never loose your case

I bought it on eBay. Here's a link to one for sale and from the seller I got mine: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...170006532668&ru

I don't really use the carabiner clip, but I put it on for the pic.

On the DS Lite's screens I have Brando protectors. I can't recomend these enough!!! I've tried several other brands and these are the best. They're a little expensive, but so durrable, good & clear - fast shipping too. http://shop.brando.com.hk/ultraclearscreenprotector.php

Do you use the top of the Touch screen much? My invisibleShield screen protector is off by about 1 or 2 mm, not noticible at all when the screen is on.

So, do you use the very top of the screen in many DS games or am I ok?

My Brando screen protector is exactly the size of both screen. I mean EXACTLY, not even 1/2 mm to spare on any sides.

I have an invisibleshield on my ipod video 60gig and it's a pretty amazing protector. I'm not sure though I would like the orange peel look of it on the DSL though or the water/spray application cause of all the DSLs openings.

Bestskins ever sells the same product as shieldguard, but for a lot less:

About the shield, it was a bit difficult to get it installed exactly but it wasn't too hard. One thing I would recommend is paying the extra money to get a 2nd bottle of solution, as we used all of ours installing it, so it is better to be safe and get a 2nd bottle of solution

I just applied the invisi shields from pelican, they work great.

How is the quality? How is the traction/smoothness? Any difference in playing games, like True Swing Golf? Any difference in the feel of it?

 

[Corizzle]

I haven't gotten a chance to play with it yet, as your supposed to let it sit about 24 hours before playing it. I'll reply back tomorrow if I find any difference in the touch screen.

As far as quality, it's top notch. When first installed to tell you the truth, it looked horrible. After letting it sit for about 8 hours, it looks very close to flawless. It's not as smooth as the outside of the DS Lite, but it is still fairly smooth

I just played some Trauma Center: Under the Knife

I felt no difference with the shield on then when it was off

Hmm... I came across this thread, and I was hoping if anyone knows where I could find this...

http://www.hori.jp/products/dsl/dsl_starter_kit/index.html

It seemed to be released since 27th... So yeah

But I was also wondering where they would sell these items as a whole, as advertised...

Thanks

The hori screenprotector... Does it use glue, or is it static?

Just got my Hori protectors from Decalgirl today, and a few minutes ago I found this:
