How do I stick the plastic bezel to the screen? More importantly what adhesive do I use?

Thank you! A few years ago (I was about 8 yo, I'm 15 now) I had some rage problems and ended up breaking my old GamePad's screen. Even worse, it was the special Zelda WWHD GamePad. With this video, I can finally fix the smashed LCD. Thank you so much brother!

You are most welcome 🤗

Have you fixed it yet? I have a similar story, only I sat on it and it broke...

I can’t flip the flex cable switch for the bottom part of the Wii U

[@thegamingdead3657]

Also I’m not sure how important the insulation in on the lcd but I just Peale it of and put it on the new one

[@WeRepair]

Shouldn't be an issue.

[@modnobbobxd8782]

How much does it cost to fix?

[@WeRepair]

Less than £50 if I remember correctly

[@micahransford6419]

What if my digitizer is shattered

[@scpnoobers]

Take it off then buy a new one
