  • I'm confused... At which point did he realize he'd forgotten half of the hinge..? I missed when he finally put it in... :/

  • i wish someone could replace my shell for free im to scared to do this

  • I really want to do this but those hinges scare me, all the antenna wires... I am worried that I will mess something up. So far I only tried the basics, like replacing button pads and broken screens but thats about it... Great video though.

  • i noticed you didnt screw the curcit board in to place and the screw behind the battery

    too hope your ds is ok. and thanks for the awsome vids

  • that elevator music makes me want to sleep...........

  • way to hard, and im worried about messing up the shell its in now

  • y is it called shock does it shock u

  • no SHOCK! is the make of the see through case

  • when i turn on the game, the screens never turn on....

    any suggestions?

  • Yes its the wifi module either loose of broken. The back wire plugs into it it plugs into the mainboard. This guy struggles with the the top screen ribbon hold both parts in each hand the ribbon away furthest away

  • take it apart again and firmly put in the screens??? thought of that yet

  • Comment removed

  • starting at 4:02

    the hardest part of the whole process for me

  • After many attempts of trying to remove the battery cover i kinda wore out the screw (that holds the battery cover in place). any idea on how to extract it somehow?

  • Try a screwdriver with a bigger phillips head.

  • lol i think this video is the best tutorial on youtube u dont use dam fast forward

  • that rapes ass!

  • This Movie is a perfect help to replacing the DSLite Case. NOTE TO NOOBZ---- When replaceing the Last part of the case make sure you keep an eye on the power button, i cracked the little tiny black pice right off now I have to find a new motherboard :(

  • No, you can buy a new power switch which you solder to yuor current motherboard for like $2.

  • Bravo !!! Et Merci :P

  • jeez, he makes the flat wire look so damn easy

  • thanks for the tutorial. just ordered my cobalt blue shell and will get stuck in soon. wish me luck :D

  • i agree

  • That is So cool!

    I'm going to do that to my ds as soon as i get it for my birthday!

  • I did that to mine too..But the upper shell doesn't fit, and when i open my ds it doesn't make that clicky sound..:(

    I think imma open it again.....:(

  • i did the same on mine thanks for the movie it really helppesewf

  • sweet

  • waaayyy too complicated.

    i was thinking about doing it before i saw this vid.

  • It doesnt look that hard really, just follow this vid exactly, and keep track of everything and you should be fine, i just ordered this case and im gonna install it myself, should be easy :)

  • @rizrz34 Did it work out???

  • @Brendonwii Yes it worked out, been using the ds with my new clear case for months now :)

  • congratulations!!

    really good!

    pretty!

  • what about the warrenty sticker

  • gone, it doesn't count anymore, the warranty only counts if you, yourself, don't make any changes to the product :p

  • You mean the siticker at the back that has the numbers on it? I changed mine from Crimson/Black to Red because of a crack and it came with a sticker.

  • lol at 1:10

  • wow. that looks quite impressive. i would love to do it but i couldnt justify takeing my month old ds apart. 

    W00T m3 ds rocks!!!!!!!

  • how do i put the power button in and vol;ume button =/

  • Where the hell is the third vid in the tutorial?!

  • click ''More From: big12343'', above ''Related Videos''.

  • Ohhh, thanks dude.

  • man these cases are awesome but annoying as shit!!! when i got mine, none of the screw holes were driled out! so i had to sit for hours opening up the holes and making the damn screws fit! not that its not worth it, but still its frikkin annoying!

  • Yep, got the same Problem, that really sucks

  • THAT IS FREAKING AWESOME!!

  • For those of you that have the shock case for ds, how are the buttons. I know that each case comes with clear buttons, but how clear are they. Are they completly clear, like glass, or are they more of a frosted clear?

  • If you go to the end of the video where he opens the ds withthe new covering you will see that the buttons are frosted clear. (u can even see the letters if u look closely)

  • is it just me or is this guy all thumbs? he seems like he can barely operate that screwdriver... and i swear i saw a pair of tweezers with his screw driver set in the first vid, yet he he still insists on fumbling with all the tiny parts with his hoplessly knobby fingertips.

  • dont try this at home

  • the music sorta in a way (not excatly) like Lunar

  • man it must have fealt good to do finally complete it man. props to ya. but i dont have the balls to do that. im good with electronics but im not that risky. i know a store near where i live that can do stuff like this but if they screw it up im not sure they pay for it o.o. ill have to check. but that case looks real elite. and the screen looks bigger as well. im thinking of getting the zelda case off of ebay.

  • Man those wires and hinges look brutal. I ordered one of the official nintendo black shells. Can't wait to F up my DS!

  • what is that backround music it sounds like elevator/(the music the use when they put you on hold)

  • ...actually.. I changed my mind.. o_o"

    this seems like more trouble than it's worth.. <_<

    I'd rather have someone do it for me xD

  • Just completed chrome mod.

    Putting the screen ribbon into the new cse was tricky and took me about an hour.

    Main trouble I had was with the L and R buttons, the pin holes were too tight and the buttons would not work, after many many attempts I got it but what a pain in the butt.

    had to kind of half a%$ the R button. UGH!

    Also I scratched the bottom during installation.

    Wish I would have bought the official NDS Black shell that's being sold now.

  • I'm having a little trouble trying to figure out the L R bumper buttons at this very moment, hope this video helps me.

  • Got it, it was the mic wire was positioned incorrectly, after readjusting the mic wire under the motherboard R and L and springs sit nicely in place.

  • Well, I left out the springs in the L and R bumpers and they click fine without them so no probs. I think I left out a few screws too but no biggies all the main structural ones are in, now it's all back toegther and when I try to turn it on it goes on for 1 sec and goes off, I must have not plugged one of those little connectors in properly. this has taken a good few hours now or feels like it with all the reopening to fix bits I left out like that little screw thingy for the battery cover.

  • Well, I didn´t make it. I broke It, Dóh!!

    I cut off the wire.

    This was a nightmare!!

    But I could fix it if I buy a new upper screen.

    I can only say one thing, this aint for noobs!

  • crazy! nice looking ds

  • sweet i ordered a replacement shell for my ds. with thease videos i can change out my ds with out breaking it. my hinge is busted

  • looks awesome but where can u get this case (buy :P)

  • it makes the screens look bigger

  • i would never have enough time to that!!

  • lol well, you just spent 40 minutes watching how to do it! jusk kidding

  • I did it!Thanks bro!

  • That was absolutely amazing! lol. The case is coolio.

  • okay...

  • i wish could that . cool video

  • I would actually pay someone to finsh and put

    the case inside.

  • woah it looks awesome

  • where do you get the case?

  • Looks like tricky stuff, I think you did a good job here. although I personnaly dont like consoles with see thru skins, I still think its very well done.

  • just ordered one of these cases for my daughter looks hard to do but il give it a go

    she has broken hinges on her white one but nintendo didnt want to know

  • i wish some body would do it for me

  • ummm will the ds still work...

  • looks soooo crap!!!!!!!!!!

  • Nintendo is supposedly fixing/replaceing all white DS's with the left hinge crack for free. My sons cracked up so bad there were pieces missing, I just put on one of these shock mods, it is a bit technical but just in that you need to be meticulous about where everything goes and how the wires run. Took me about 2 hours, I didn't use any instructions or it could of maybe been quicker. Real nice case.

  • looks bad..but i agree, i would never open it ^^ it's very sensetive.

  • My DS has a cracked hingeand I've been looking at the Shock! but I've read some bad reviews. Are they strong enough compared to the original? have you had or heard of any problems?

  • i really want to do this to my ds, but it looks to hard :S. Is it really hard, or do you think anyone could do it?

  • You should have some modding skill. It is not for persons with two left hands. =)

  • hey guys i have a white ds lite but i won't take it apart 'cause mine is sensitive.

  • i was about to get the chrome casemod...but now that i saw your videos...im havin my doubts...looks CRAZY hard to do..just don't wanna kill my ds...

  • Man I would love to do this but I am afraid of fucking up my ds and I am very imapcient when it come to getting little things together

  • WOW! awesome! but im not gonna do that cus im worrie if i break it!

  • i agree with you. my ds is very sensitive!

  • Looks like you forgot to show how to install thepower light indicator and the L & R trigger buttons, but other that you did good.

  • LOL!! I wouldn't trust that dude with my DS, looks like this was his first attempt:D

  • Yes it was. =) I only have one DS Lite. :)

  • LOL i was only joking mate - actually if this is ur first attempt, it's impressive- I thought u were spost to be a pro or sumthin! I've got all ur videos and will be usin em to do mine soon, so thanks for takin the time dude! ps my mate said you have nice hands lol

  • im really tempted to mod my ds but there is just wayy to much room for error. i'll stick to the skins

  • omg i just bought that and im scared i might break my ds it seem hard... big12343 can u help me pm me plz

  • That type of music always makes me fall asleep. Did you get a ton of dust when you finished putting it all together? Nice video otherwise. :)

  • Nicely done.

  • I'd be terrified to attempt this. O.O;

    When I push on the back of the DS Lite's Bottom half, I can feel something being touched o nthe inside. What am I touching? The Game Slot thingies? I get paranoid easily. ; _ ;

  • holy that was crazy nice i would enevry try bez i dont wana screw up my ds

  • wow, who would take half an hour just to change the DS caseing????

  • The white and black wires, are those for the screen and speakers?

    Do you need to connect them? or do you just put it in there

  • The wires are for the wireless LAN antenna and the microphone.

    They must be connected.

  • omg this video is so helpful thank you for taking the time to make this.

  • Thanks, long video . . . but it was cool in the end. Won't that break the DS?

  • How do you mean by "Won't that break the DS?"?

  • NO, not unless you mess up,and nice vid big, it helps a lot
