    • Carefully move the rear cover away and from the front cover. Place it to the left.

    • Do not completely separate. The two halves are still attached via a white ribbon cable.

    I just used this guide to open a Pro2 controller, the only difference was the ribbon cable was between the analog sticks. Otherwise it went perfectly.

    You have to be careful not to break the clip on the middle bottom (between the analog sticks)
