Hacking Do you use a Screen Protector?

[jelbo]

I use Hori's. I'm a bit concerned about the time I'll eventually take them off, I hard stories of them leaving nasty residues :/

Go to eBay and search "Exim DS". It's called Exim Spuc. I use it and it is excellent.

I wouldnt buy anything else apart from licensed Nintendo products, so I'd go for the Hori ones like I did. Easily to remove if you want, just use some scotch tape and pull them off.. they're hard to apply though. They're non sticky as well btw, I mean they don't use any sort of glue.

I use a Hori. I never really had trouble applying it ... maybe I just got lucky. I did it in the bathroom to minimize dust ... and blew the screen a little until there was no dust, held my breath, and applied it. No bubbles, no nothing.

I just have ONE tiny complaint. The bottom screen doesn't fit EXACTLY ... like ... I squared it off with the left side of the touchscreen ... but I have this little gap on the right side. And I was sort of afraid to take it off and reapply ...

Yea, and dust gets into that gap. I put mine so that it was about centre, and dust gets into all 4 sides

I use from the start Hori protectors for my phat and lite, never had a prob.

I do replace the touch screen protector once every six month, (don't need to, but i like a clean smooth screen, so i do)

, the gba protectors i never had replaced

I don't use one. It's not needed. My screen is mint and I've had my lite since launch.

Nope, i have had a DS lite since it launched, and I play a lot of stylus heavy games.
I don't have a single scratch or defect with the touch screen.

I press fairly hard too.

hi, i have a question about protectors.
as u know, the manula of DSL suggests using protector for buttom screen, doesnt say anything about upper screen.
i bought a two piece for both screens, the buttom one is ok, but the upper one is a little strange on some parts, i donno how to explain it, its like when u press your finger at a LCD screen, do u know what i mean? at one point its like that on my upper screen, do u recommend taking it off or let it bet as it is?
TiA!

Where do you buy Hori brand protectors? All I can get around here are Madcatz or Intec brand stuff.

You'll probably have to order them.
