Was looking for a perfect tectorial explaining step-by-step and voiced over and you have provided this after years of searching not really searching but you get what I mean thank you so much much appreciated
Thank you for your help with this tutorial! At first looking at the reviews for the shell and people saying the installation isn't easy- I was worried but your tutorial made everything so smoothly! I love my new controller!
That's with changing every shell. I changed my Switch Lite's shell from the Aquamarine to the Atomic Purple like the N64 controller and holy shit. Go watch a video for that one. That was the sketchiest thing i've ever done in my life lol.
@14:24 I just used a strip of washi tape, folded it onto itself and taped the ends to the strip to "extend" it and guide it though. OH and thank you for this video, my mod was successful! Had to look up other videos on on how to change out the trigger buttons before continuing this video and it really made me appreciate the quality of your video- everyone elses was blurry, far away, dark, no audio/hard to follow
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I thought it would be easier ngl but your step by step tutorial is really helpful. I might be doing this with me controller.
Good instructions this video. Step by step and clear. I tried this but realised my controller was little different components and holders and also realised the golden shell was too big for inside of controller
If anyone is worried about doing this. I'm 14 and clumsy (and I know this is cliché) but if I can do it I'm sure you can. Just keep track of where you put stuff I recommend: - A PH00 Screwdriver - Tweezers (I didn't really need them) - A place to put the screws Go slow, this took me around 3 hours in one sitting. Good Luck.
I didn't need to to replace the top I needed to put the thumbstick in and that's video was helpful I recommend it to anybody with a PlayStation controller
@@KillerHairRocks the back shell unscrew the bit holding the light bar and slide the pieces out. Then another screw for the connecter. Just remember where everything goes or take a photo before doing it. :)
Soooooo helpful! I just got that SAME case off and replaced it by the original black case. (It looked awesome but somehow the D-Pad felt numb while playing Tetris Effect)
So you would assume all's you have to do is unscrew the face plate and then put your new one on. However you have to be a technician at MIT to do this.
Does this work for all models of controller? I still have the white controller that came with the destiny bundle when is first came out and want to change the skin on it. Or is it for only the newer controllers?
For some reason my screws won’t fit on the motherboard. Do you know if the screw for the motherboard is a different size than the four on the back of the controller?
Find serial number on the back of he controller and then google it to find which model it is. the model types are JDM 001 JDM 011 JDM 30 and the JDM40. then just search for that type :D
@@lorockebalboa It should fit but check in the descriptions of where your getting the shell. They usually note all models it fits. Just to make sure because i don't want you to get the wrong one.

@@LevelOneGamer I can't get the rubber piece for the PS button to stay on
Ok this is harder then I thought😩🤦♀️
is funnier with that name
fr😂
I guess you live up to your name then 🙄. It seems harder than it is because he has more shakes than an alcoholic
LazyQueen :p I was thinking the same thing. I am quite disappointed. 😩
Wdym harder its not that hard
Oh dang, I thought all the major components would be attached to the bottom shell.. 😭😭 this gonna be harder than I thought
Take it slowly and you will have it finished in no time :D
I thought they would've been too...
@@LevelOneGamer Took it slowly and i was able to finish changing the front shell. Took me 3 years. Thank you for the advise.
@@gustavofring7774 BAHAHAHA
Same!

Great video
Simple, thorough, no loud background music, just straight to the tutorial, great video!
I’m gonna buy my first shell right now!
You seem luke such a nice and sympathic person. It majes youre videos so fun. You should have more subs man
Thank you Anime Kun! I'm glad you like my videos because i enjoy making them. Its always great to read a nice comment like yours :D
No
Honestly I would be paranoid that I would ruin something trying to change it 😅
But it is something handy to know.
If you ever want one changed or tips let me know :D
L.O.G do you know how to do a first gen PS4 controller
And are shell compatible with each other
It's easy
@@NicVandEmZ No =(
I just realised you have to almost take apart the whole controller to just remove a ribbon thing and a screw.
That's with changing every shell. I changed my Switch Lite's shell from the Aquamarine to the Atomic Purple like the N64 controller and holy shit. Go watch a video for that one. That was the sketchiest thing i've ever done in my life lol.
@@chrisarbour lmao, I own a switch lite and I understand why u think that. Congrats to you for doing that tho:)

Does the shell come with the rubber backing for the direction pl buttons?
My one didnt, but i have seen them available on ebay.
Good instructions this video. Step by step and clear. I tried this but realised my controller was little different components and holders and also realised the golden shell was too big for inside of controller

Thank you so much for this! You made it 100X easier than i was expecting
This is a good tutorial. I'm currently swapping the shells of a black and red ps4 controller to make a red/black hybrid controller
Thank you for helping teach us how to change out the shells.
Good job! Green is my favorite color, considering doing this to my ps4 controller.
Thanks :D
Love it, very nice tutorial! Would love to have one of these in blue, whenever I muster up the courage to actually take the controller apart hehe
Amazing video man(: keep up the good work
Cheers Hamzah! :D

Thank you so much I know this videos old but it will still help people with it no matter how old they are
Definitely earned a sub, by far the best tutorial out there I could find! Keep it up! :)
the buttons look rly cool from the back
Can you do a best silicone PS4 skins from Amazon?
Thank you for a very instructional video.
My option and share buttons are attached to the main controller part... Is that a kind of new model?
I am attempting to do this... will keep yall updated..
Update to Step 1- ow my hand hurts it is hard to screw it off!!!
How'd it go?
Where do you get the tools that you used ?
SUPER helpful thank you!
This was super helpful dude thanks!!
Cool! :D
@@LevelOneGamer also how do you change the back shell? Is it kinda the same process?
@@KillerHairRocks the back shell unscrew the bit holding the light bar and slide the pieces out. Then another screw for the connecter. Just remember where everything goes or take a photo before doing it. :)
-my homie
:D
I have the newest PS4 controller. Will this still work as I have read that it won’t work? Thanks
Hi Midrq, most of the people that sell shells will tell you in the description which serial numbers the shell they are selling will fit.
Hope you get more subs you deserve them
THanks CFC Squad! :D
Soooooo helpful! I just got that SAME case off and replaced it by the original black case. (It looked awesome but somehow the D-Pad felt numb while playing Tetris Effect)
Thank you so much bro your video helped me alot !!

Haha xD
Helped me fix my controller good video
Watching this video was such great help thanks so much ☺️
Glad i could help :D
Thanks for the tutorial i used it to switch the ps4 buttons
What is the difference between models with the shells some show not compatible
tbh this seems kinda hard but fun great video man
Seems a lot more difficult than its Xbox counterpart. Nonetheless, great video. Very detailed and helpful.
Holy shit this was SUCH a pain in the ass. But atleast you were fun to listen to! Thanks for the video!
The share and options don’t come out plz help me
did you find out how to do it.?
could you make a video on how to swap the back shell?
Amazing tutorial buddy!!
Great vid helpful keep it up!
This is a pretty professional video
Does this work for all models of controller? I still have the white controller that came with the destiny bundle when is first came out and want to change the skin on it. Or is it for only the newer controllers?
Thanks You Bruthah
Thanks man :)
thanks man it worked perfect thx again
Man you got heaps of watchers!
Yep the other video i have 1.5 million haha 😂
Thank you so much it really helped me out and it was also easy!!!!
just wanted to replace the thumbsticks,, but i guess i'll be replacing the shell as well 🙊
Good luck peachykeenm 👍
Thanks your video helped me a lot! :)
Thank you! Way more complicated than the XBox One
For some reason my screws won’t fit on the motherboard. Do you know if the screw for the motherboard is a different size than the four on the back of the controller?
Thanks for the helpful video!
This really helped me thank you
Thanks Simon it helped me alot because my Shell broke and now i have black and orange 😃👍🏻👍🏻❤
Whilst i have the controller stripped, would it be easy to replace fault sticks? (Drift, left stick not working properly for sprint ect)
You would need to de solder the existing ones out and then solder in the new ones. so it depends if you want to solder.
@@LevelOneGamer so simply pulling off the rubber sticks and putting new one on, wouldn't fix the issue? Its under the sticks that are the issue?
How does this work on the new controller? As it seems that Options & Share buttons are connected to the housing.
Best one of these!
Where did you get that pry tool
Came with the kit but ebay has many.
Ok thx
Thanks dude
Cheers! :)
The Xbox controller is so much easier than this! I was going to get a matching shell but no way 😭
sorry would I need a hand? I have the same controller as you, but I can not find a shell to put
Find serial number on the back of he controller and then google it to find which model it is. the model types are JDM 001 JDM 011 JDM 30 and the JDM40. then just search for that type :D
L.O.G ok thanks
@@LevelOneGamer bro i have a JDM 55 will the JDM4O shell work for my dualshock 4? pls answer i need some help :(
@@lorockebalboa It should fit but check in the descriptions of where your getting the shell. They usually note all models it fits. Just to make sure because i don't want you to get the wrong one.
@@LevelOneGamer which one do you have?
THE SCREW BIT IS THE HARD BIT.
I think they glue the new PS4 controller screws in or something because no matter what I do they won't budge.
This helped a lot!! Thx!!
This is so helpful thank you so much!
Great tutorial.
Cheers! :)
VERY HELPFUL
