Painting your DS Lite is a good way to show your individuality, but it's just so easy to mess up. That's why replacement cases are really popular these days. You can just pick out a design or color that you like, and if you have the money, you're pretty much good to go. The only hard thing about it is the actual case replacement part. Not all of us are good with their hands, and sometimes the sheer thought of taking a screwdriver to your DS Lite and taking it apart when you're not a Nintendo-certified DS Lite tech is enough to make some people break down with fear and guilt.

Alright, we're exaggerating. Maybe. Who knows, there really might be people like that out there in the wide blue yonder.

Right. Going back to the topic, we're here to talk about replacement cases. Project SHOCK!, in case you haven't read our earlier report, is a full replacement DS Lite case project that, according to their website, aims to "provide gamers with an alternative to the original colors, as well as function as a repair part for destroyed DS Lite cases." In order to make their customers' lives easier they have also made an installation tutorial for their replacement cases. The tutorial is chock-full of photos (actually, it's pretty much made up of nothing BUT photos) to make it easier to understand.
