eXtremeRate Black Replacement Buttons for Xbox One Elite V2 Controller Model 1797, LB RB LT RT Bumpers Triggers ABXY Start Back Sync Profile Switch Keys for Xbox Elite Series 2 Core Model 1797

Was not expecting these buttons to come with a whole installation kit, too! A pry tool, spare screws and both required screwdrivers. Really great bit of kit. The buttons look great and have a brilliant colour to them, and fit great, too. And the company even has a video on youtube showing how to install them which I followed. The hardest part of the installation is the initial removal of the faceplate which is held on with clips and glue. Be sure to warm up the front of the controller with a hairdryer to loosen the glue, the clips are easy to pop off, but forcing the glue will cause you to scuff or gouge the edges of your controller if you aren't careful. I found the included pry tool wasn't enough on it's own to shift the face plate. So I also used an old credit card wrapped with a microfiber cloth to help wedge the faceplate off. Use the hairdryer in bursts and take it slowly, the pry tool can damage or scuff the edges, so use it to get the initial gap wide enough to wedge the card in, and then take it slow as you go around the edges. Be careful not to gouge the rubberized grips around the sides, as well. But if you avoid using the pry tool on the sides and focus on wedging it open from the top, you'll be fine. I was able to perfectly remove the faceplate without a speck of damage with this method. The hairdyer tip applies to unscrewing the thumbsticks, too.

I got these along with some paddles from eXtremeRate. They do look amazing! I like how this company provides various products to customise your controller. The XBox series 2 do tend to have bumper issues and all I needed to repair my bumper issue was replacing the stock parts which had snapped a little and stopped the consistent pressing of LB. Good video guides. Provides the tools to use. Saved me some £££ which was better still!

Acceptable product replacement for existing buttons on Elite controller. Nice colour. Easy to fit if you view online videos first to find out how it’s done.

Fantastic and made to a high quality, if you check my reviews of other eXtremeRate parts that will all say how good this company is at making these and how much I recommend them.

As with some other reviews the bumpers aren't a match for the original, once the faceplate is back on they instantly stick, poorly printed I guess

The product was fine. It didn’t fit perfectly but for the price I paid I didn’t have high hopes. I ended up returning the product as it wasn’t brilliant. Bought as a replacement for a broken bumper but it didn’t fix anything.

Another part for my totally blue controller, reasonable price too

Got me out of a spot with a damaged controller, fit perfectly. Hardest part was opening the controller but that's nothing to do with the seller of this, that's how microsoft build them! A lot cheaper than sending it away to be repaired.

Do not buy these if you cannot unscrew your thumbsticks without absurd force. Do NOT force them with a tool as you will shatter your joystick. If it doesn’t unscrew when you apply a decent amount of force you’re going to have to be content with the stock buttons unless you know how to solder on new joysticks. That being said, the only negative I could say about these buttons is they don’t say what they’re for. Unless you’re unfamiliar with the controller it’s not a problem and I prefer them that way anyway but do be aware you cannot tell which button is which, you have to know the controller layout.

Ottimo

With proper tools and time , this is a must to any gamer that is interested in upgrading the looks of your controller. The paint is very nice and feels great within your finger tips . If not properly taken care of , it can scratch but hasn’t happen to me . Fits perfectly within the elite 2 button placement and valued at a reasonable price.

eXtremeRate halt... Qualität wie immer super...!!
