Took them out just fine, I'm doing a full shell swap.

Now I'm having trouble feeding the new 3DS XL's top screen, camera, and volume/3D slider through the 3 freaking millimeter opening.

Any tips, an order to do it in, anything?

I had to do this with an older 3ds but ended up ripping them. So your best choice atm would to take it to a repair shop and ask them to do it.

...anyway, I eventually got it through.

Just one more thing, though. I can't get the hinge to click.

Does anyone who has repaired this know if the hinge part goes in first, or the metal cable coil?

    my VW had the high beams wired to the low beams, my dad's friend figured it out and corrected that
  • Skv0ra @ Skv0ra:
    cuz my stude is 6V - adds an extra layer of fun not fun
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    they weren't putting out enough light cos both were on at the same time
  • Skv0ra @ Skv0ra:
    lol
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    it was converted to 12V
  • Skv0ra @ Skv0ra:
    so OG they were 6 as well?
  • Skv0ra @ Skv0ra:
    im surprised my, just beams, are actually enough at night
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    also I put the 6V wiper motor back in
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    and it runs off of a potentiometer so it doesn't get 12V
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    reason being is the 12V motor parks the wipers in the wrong place every time
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    6V wiper motor is the key ingredient. parks nice and low
