    • 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)

Hi, it looks like the buttons have little notches that limit where they can go. I was really hoping to modify it so that my a button is green and my b is red would that work if I file down that little notch?

Will Platt -

The buttons are all the same height, so feel free to file down. Those nubs are just part of assemble process.

But do leave the 2 longer stems on each side of the button, they stop it from rotating freely.

I just completed this guide, and it is 100% perfection. The photos are useful and clear, and explanations are on point. Many thanks.
