Hacking How hard is it to replace the shell?

[purechaos996]

Anyone here replaced the shell of their DS lite? if so how hard was it? I ask because I wanna replace it with the Zelda shell that ShopTemp is selling (ill add a link later) Im confident that I could do it but I need some assurance before I go and open my DS lite lol.

i changed my case it all went well untill i put the bottom part of the shell on then snaped my power switch. i would try it again but i would take more care with the bottom half. if you watch the videos on youtube while ur doing it, you should get it done the video i watched didnt show how to put the very last piece on and thats where i broke my switch lol

heaven's forbid that anyone searches the forum any more for information

I created a very detailed guide for case swapping almost 2 years ago which can be viewed here: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=98240
