I got a used New 3DS (lol thanks Nintendo Kyoto for that name) and the system needs a replacement top screen bezel. Not the screen mind you, just the bezel, the front part that takes all of the scratches. I have seen videos indicating that it is easy to remove it and to replace it, but I am concerned about getting one. I happen to have a spare "for parts" unit that I was thinking of using the bezel from, as it is in nice shape. However, I don't know if you can reuse the bezels, or if the adhesive is not usable a second time after you remove it. Looking for anybody whose experience can tell me the answer, either yes or no. Thanks all for reading.

Not familiar with the N3DS one specifically but as a rule of thumb they are single use by any official quality standard (just like any rubber feet) - in practice it will probably still hold a few more times but not equally as well
I'm back, 18 months later, with followup questions. I've tried heating with a hair dryer, but I couldn't get any movement. Is there something I can use besides a razor on this? I don't want to ruin the screen by accident as you can imagine. Maybe I just need to get it a bit hotter?
i bet you could pop it off if you attatched a suction cup to it and pulled it off

@Veho, Sounds and smells like bullshit. They don't give you cancer, and California should know that. I don't get why they stick labels that say "may or may not cause reproductive harm or cancer". -
