Hi guys,
I got myself a broken in half 2DS XL with damaged LCD ribbon cable for playing around with objective to repair it.

After installing the new LCD in the new top shell and putting it all together, I noticed that the hinge support (for a lack of better word, check the pic in attachment) that goes inside the top shell was missing. I'm strugling to find a replacement for it, so would like to ask if anyone tried using a New/Old 3DS XL hinge support (like this) on a 2DS XL shell.

Any other suggestions are much appreciated!

Well, had to 3D print that bastard!
It fit well and finally I can play some Mario with a standing & steady screen.

If someone needs the .stl file for printing, PM me.

Cheers
