As suggested in a separate thread, I have a way to solve the 3D screen scratching:
I plan on purchasing some adhesive feet and applying them to the upper, inner corners of the 3DS top-screen/lid.
The scratching occurs because the bottom screen ridge rubs up against the 3D screen when the clamshell lid is closed.
I measured the bottom screen ridge and found it to be ~2mm. Thus, the adhesive feet must be >2mm.
According to this handy conversion chart...

... it looks like 7/64" is the sweet spot at 2.78mm. (1/8" may work as well)
McMaster Carr sells adhesive feet, but so do many other vendors.

MC's #95495K423 May work. It's a 7/64" square base with a l/w of ~0.4"/~10mm.
I'll order some and try them out. Any extra, I'll give out, minus the cost for postage. (Don't ping me until I've got 'em.)
