Great video man, definitely was excited to check this one out. I got my hands on this myself and I gotta say I have a few issues with it myself. Most you already addressed, but a big one for me were the L/R buttons, the loss of the springs makes the buttons feel stiff and not having that slight kickback from them just doesn't feel right. They still work just fine, but in terms of comfortability, I'd say it just doesn't feel too good pushing those buttons, especially when they're so close to the upper back of the shell now. It's almost a deal breaker for me if I'm going to be perfectly honest. The light pipe not fitting properly was also pretty disappointing. But, seeing what you did gave me an idea of what I can do instead. The other issue I had, it's not too bad, but I have to point it out. I ordered the 3D printed parts to fit over the optional USB-C and headphone jack openings and temporarily installed them, but I ran into an issue where the parts just don't stay in place. Maybe I'm missing something? But it looked as though the GBA SP motherboard is supposed to hold them in place, but I found that nothing worked to keep those parts there, and I really didn't want to use hot glue. Overall, I think this shell is amazing aside from those issues I ran into. The big one for me is mostly the L/R feel.

Today, for the first time in months, went to Boxy Pixel's website and saw the Unhinged SP for the first time. Then I get the notification of your new video. Sold! They owe you a commission. Great.... I have a new shell for the junked yard sale SP I bought during early Covid. Thanks again for the superior videos they really get me through the B-Crap. Great! Please keep it up and good luck with the Patreon!

I've did this once with 3d printing, i found the project from thingiverse (boxypixel takes the inspiration from there). it cost me around $20 to print the parts, but sadly no RL button and no charging port (need to solder the RL button with a tactile switch and a usb c charging module for the charging port)
