I basically just want to open my ds lite. Get all the stuff out and shuv it into my new housing (my one is cracked and stuffed)
Thanks guys

there is something on youtube, i watched the whole video just to see the innards of a ds lite... lots of little screws, and hopefully your case came with the triwing screwdriver to take it apart with?

you need that triwing screwdriver, a little phillips screwdriver, tweezers and a utility knife... other than that, it didnt seem too big a deal... cant remember how i came across the video tho, but it is there...

here is the vid, enjoy, and good luck... post back with how it went for ya.

Let us know how you go with this Pyro, my DS case is in perfect condition but I wouldn't mind changing colours and adding some clear buttons.

Does anyone know anything about the skins/wraps you can buy for the DS? Do they come off easily when you get sick of it?

I had one of those skins on my DS, and they do come off mess free if you take your time.

for skins, best you can buy is from decalgirl... www.decalgirl.com

best skins going for any system, phone, laptop, ipod, goo free ... they ship anywhere, and have great prices... only problem i have is the selection... TOO MANY to look thru!!

but if you happen to 'not' like any of those, you can create your own! and they will print it up for you as a skin... cant beat em, so may as well go look!

on a side note, i was looking for some stylus options for ds lites and phats... and have to say that i cant find anything good in shops! not to mention when i did find something close to what i wanted at JB, well it was pretty expensive! so with my digging found that www.playasia.com is the goto place for not only a nice new stylus, but alot of other things as well... so check them out if you havnt already, and enjoy!
