If you’re a fan of transparent electronics (think late-90s/early-2000s Game Boy Color or Atomic Purple controllers), this shell nails the vibe. Difficulty: High — the product description isn’t exaggerating. This is a full disassembly job. Expect 2 hours if you’re experienced, longer if you’re not. Tools Included: Comes with both Y00 and Phillips screwdrivers, a full set of screws, and even a tempered glass screen protector. Tips: Watch an install video first — I paused and replayed multiple times. Use a heat gun or hair dryer on low to remove the screen; too much heat could damage the digitizer. Keep screws organized — there are many sizes. Tweezers make reassembly easier than fingers. Shell Material: Durable ABS plastic that feels solid once assembled. Transparency: Clear enough to see the internals (and in my case, the modchip) but slightly smoky — not perfectly crystal-clear. Buttons: The colored A/B/X/Y buttons are a great GameCube throwback. Tactile feel is similar to OEM, though slightly stiffer at first. Nostalgic Nintendo aesthetic — the colored buttons against the dark transparent shell pop nicely. Back side perfectly shows off my custom work without looking cheap or gimmicky. Matte finish means fewer fingerprints than glossy shells. Pros Unique, premium look that stands out from stock designs. Solid construction; no creaks or misalignments after reassembly. Includes quality extras like a tempered glass screen protector. Perfect for showcasing internal mods. Final Verdict If you’re comfortable tearing down your Switch Lite and want something unique, the eXtremeRate Clear Black shell delivers both nostalgia and personality. This isn’t a quick cosmetic mod — it’s a project. But the result feels worth the effort. Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) Who It’s For: Modders, retro-Nintendo fans, and anyone who wants their handheld to stand out. Who Should Skip: Anyone unwilling to do a full teardown or new to console repair. Review: Full disassembly required - so the case itself is pretty light kinda thin but doesn’t feel cheap imo. if you look super close I mean really close you can see how the case is slightly misaligned but honestly for 20 bucks it’s nice. Yes it’s cheap but prepare to sit down for about 2 hours. I saw tons of people recommend to use different screwdrivers than the ones included so I did and overall the outcome is sick. The case looks so good once finished. My ZR button was sticky at first but after time of messing with it it’s now working fine. Watch a YouTube vid, take your time and everything should turn out okay. ## Features - Custom designed replacement housing to perfectly fit for Nintendo Switch Lite.

Yes it’s cheap but prepare to sit down for about 2 hours. I saw tons of people recommend to use different screwdrivers than the ones included so I did and overall the outcome is sick.

My shells are Glacier blue and my lite is grey. I love how the shell is semi-translucent instead of clear to avoid fingerprints and obvious scratching. The process was relatively straightforward coming from someone who is very familiar with taking apart electronics, but with patience (especially with the display removal) I would say this can be done by anyone with a steady hand. The unfortunate truth about these shells is that they just don't fit quite like the oem parts do, causing issues not related to cosmetics, however the fit is slightly imperfect on the bottom near the speaker ports. The system creaks and feels less sturdy than than my unmodified lite I can directly compare it to. For example, leaving the system on my table overnight then picking it up in the morning creates lots of popping and creaking sounds, and I can feel the system "settling" as I pick it up. The chassis just feels a bit cheap with these shells. I know the lite is a relatively inexpensive system, but if you ask me the build quality of an unmodified lite without any QC issues is genuinely quite good, better than the original switch. Some buttons do feel slightly different from stock, like the D-pad. I've tried resettling it a couple times, but it still feels crunchy and mushy with almost every down or right press. There is a bit more play in the ABXY, +, and - buttons as well. ZL and ZR feel and sound terrible if you decide to use the included clear assemblies ZL and ZR snap into, so you must use the original ones that came with your console. Mine is gray, so not an issue. Even using the two original parts, ZL and ZR feel slightly less responsive than stock. These shells really do look awesome and they fit very well for the most part, but if you value oem build quality and button feel, you should probably stay away from any mods like this. ## Frequently Bought Together - eXtremeRate Clear Orange DIY Replacement Shell for Nintendo Switch Lite, NSL Handheld Controller Housing with Screen Protector, Custom Case Cover for Nintendo Switch Lite - eXtremeRate Black Replacement ABXY Home Capture Plus Minus Keys Dpad L R ZL ZR Trigger for Nintendo Switch Lite, Full Set Buttons Repair Kits with Tools for Nintendo Switch Lite - 2-Pack Replacement Joystick Analog Thumb Stick Repair Kit for Nintendo Switch/Switch OLED Model/Switch Lite Joy-Con Controller - Drift Fix Tools Y1.5 / +1.5 Screwdriver/Pry Tools --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/566155257-clear-orange-diy-replacement-shell-for-nintendo-switch-lite-nsl](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/566155257-clear-orange-diy-replacement-shell-for-nintendo-switch-lite-nsl) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
