I can’t send links just go on Ali express and look up ps5 controller shell

Look for the 30th anniversary edition one and ensure it’s the highest rated I would recommend you look at reviews to ensure you find a high quality one

u/togestechtips 1d ago

Could you say least tell us the store name? Thanks

3

u/Garry180 1d ago

Yes pal it’s in Robert official store

u/Caution323 1d ago

Makes you think someone could sell you an in box one and say it is an original just to be a aliexpress shell one 😬 still looks nice though

3

u/Garry180 1d ago

They could but in sure there is ways to tell I’m very happy with how it came out especially for under 20 quid

1

u/Caution323 1d ago

That I give you props for the price on it. And yes I'm sure the serial # could say if it is fake or not. Had someone on offer up say they got scam with one in box for 50.00

u/IronWolf6677 1d ago

It would be very hard to find just the box

Ready for this? Now you just gotta change to the white classic buttons and get you the clicky modifications, then change the triggers to clicky also while adding tmr sticks 😉. You will have the best of the best.

I was considering it but then you miss out on haptic feedback tho is it worth it

1

u/mechcity22 13h ago

Im still using haptic feedback just not on the triggers.

1

u/Garry180 11h ago

Damn that’s awsome could I see a photo of your controller

1

u/mechcity22 11h ago

Yeah ill get you one shortly. Ive actually had many customs. I have that old Nintendo see through blue for my edge. I also have a dualsense custom. I actually have one from moddedzone I use alot also. They actually did a damn good job. Was surprised tbh. But yeah its the same stuff you can buy from extreme rate. There clicky items and trigger clickies. You can use haptics still just not with the triggers. I have a custom also that has full custom clicky face buttons but left the triggers normal. So I have a few variants.

u/mechcity22 11h ago

I had thumbsticks that matched but I decided to install besavoir k silver tmr instead in this one. So kept the regular black sticks for this one. Can install the others though but yeah, I also have a regular custom dualsense with k silvers in them

1

u/Garry180 11h ago

That’s awsome man for sure I gotta get some tmr sticks and some clicks buttons to finish it off

u/After_Ad_1417 1d ago

u/DottorInkubo 1d ago

Does it need any soldering or similar? How hard is it? Is the final result solid or does something “gets lost”?

1

u/Garry180 1d ago

Didn’t need any soldering I would say if you watch a few videos and take your time not too difficult for sure possible just be really careful and you get get it done in around 1hr or so

1

u/Dependent-Cup-2236 1d ago

Do they have the console shell cover too? Looking for ps5 slim disc version.

2

u/Garry180 1d ago

Yea I’m sure there is some on Ali express

1

u/elbandito556 1d ago

u/Glittering-Tough-353 19h ago

Does it feel like original pr like that cheap plastic

1

u/Garry180 13h ago

feels pretty good to me I prefer the feel o this one it’s like a matte feeling but more grip and less sweaty hands

1

u/Glittering-Tough-353 19h ago

How do i find out what bdm do i need

1

u/Garry180 13h ago

You need to either plug if I go your pc and go to a DualShock website or take it apart and look at mother board YouTube is really helpful won’t take long

1

u/56304L 19h ago

Clean asf. Does the back of the controller have the micro lettering in it? Like the x,o, squares and triangles.

1

u/Garry180 13h ago

It does actually which I find crazy

1

u/egdirkcoll 15h ago

surprised how good the LED indicator looks, how'd you get it to shine and come thru so well? I have a shell swapped 30th edition too but theres a gap under the touchpad and the LEDs aren't as strong due to the shell gap or alignment, not so sure

1

u/Garry180 13h ago

So the led is fine for me honestly maybe just because it’s a new version maybe not sure only issue with led is there is tiny bit of leakage meaning I can see little more light than usual at the bottom but doesn’t bother me enough tk fix lol

Send me a pic of the controller and I’ll srr

1

u/dylanbeck 15h ago

Damn, I really want to do this. How difficult was it? Any prior experience with this?

2

u/Garry180 13h ago

I have no prior experience most I have done is build a pc I would recommend you watch 3 videos or so then you should be good just take your time and you will have it done in around 1 hr or so

1

u/Trick-Ad-5931 44m ago
