If your gonna do this I wouldn't recommend buying the full kit I got mine for $30 if I knew the LT button wouldn't work I wouldn't have bought the kit I recommend buying the d-pad separately for around $7 and you can buy sliver thumbsticks for around $3 it would look better and wont have any Interference. For further explanation I installed it yesterday and the d-pad is alright if installed correctly, the real issue is the left thumbstick it interferes with the LT button because it is Magnetic so i decided to remove the left thumbstick and replace it with the original one and now it works fine, would of love to have both elite analog sticks on my controller. But for now I'll stay with only one on the right side and dpad other than that it's fine.
@@ggtca I have a series 2 as well but you must have just got a bad batch, I would contact Xbox if you are still in warranty, mine has no issues as of now.
Nice Job!! Love this modification and was thinking of doing this myself with a simple and easy fix instead of getting an elite or a scuff controller. I might be wrong but I feel like you may have installed the D-pad in incorrectly, Which might be the cause of why your D-pad was not snug in your controller. Great job on the video ;).
Thanks for the comment! The unit that I got wasn't as snug as the original D-pad no matter how I installed it. I ended up disassembling the controller again to fit in another piece of foam under the D-pad and it was "fixed".
The D-Pad maybe not quite a snug fit. The crystal-shaped pad constantly comes off if I press way too far at the edge. Still, the joysticks and the grip works great.
I had no idea this was possible. I have the thumbstick+dpad kit on the way to me. Looking forward to doing it myself (: I was reading some comments on other videos and reddit/amazon about how the magnet in the left thumbstick affects the left trigger? Is it really an issue? (if it is, could the magnet be potentially removed from the left thumbstick?) - edit: this would mean the stick would still fit but it wouldn't be magnetic

Tech Critter ok. Because all you really need to do is take off the face plate and the dpad on there right? On the scuf controllers the face plate just pops off.
Yeah, have to dismantle the controller to swap out the Dpad for this mod. The Scuf controllers are made to be easy to swap parts around - and I guess that's the main highlight?
Tech Critter ok. But u said to someone else that the dpad holder thing was a bit loose and the circle looking one kept falling of when u press too far in one corner?
Correct. The magnetic Dpads aren't magnetically adhering strongly enough to the green plate on the controller itself. It's especially bad while using the diamond Dpad plate.
It's a rubbery texture. Better grip, IMO The trigger limtis are good, it stops the trigger halfway so if you need quick actions - it doesn't go all the way down but still registers that you've pressed the button
I believe it should work. The only major difference in the shell is the newer models are a little smaller. I believe the mount for the D-Pad should be the same, if not at least compatible.
This is bogus because after installing this your left trigger button stays locked because the hall sensor is activated by the magnet in the left joystick. Don't waste your money on the stick kit. The d pad kit works fine
The joystick mod is kinda just for the sake of flexibility, but honestly - I just chose one joystick and stuck with that instead. The D-pad mod is highly dependent on what games you're playing. The games that I play don't even use the Dpad, so it's pointless yet again. The trigger lock is fantastic, though.
This kinds of kit suck. The D-pad does not stay centred because its pin is shorter than the original making the kit unusable. I bought two and lost 45 euros.
Never thought of Xbox controller is even upgradeable... good work!

Mine worked fine after the joystick and D-pad mod. But I agree, buy it separately if you already have the tools to disassemble the controller.
What a huge waste of money
How to not waste $150-$180 on a controller but upgrade it for $30 ish dollars

My right bumper is fucked but still mostly works everything else is great and worth it. The back paddles are really useful

they have the trigger locks now in white
How would it look with the Xbox series x controller
How can ı found this product
Do you know what kind of kit should I get? Most kits I find online only have the thumbsticks and not the sticks
nice work hows it going are the sticks and d pad going good

Wouldn’t it be easier to do this on a scuf? Since you aren’t able to buy the dpad custom on controller.
Probably? Scuf controllers are rather inaccessible here in my country, so this is the next logical thing to do

How are the pieces that limit the triggers doing? And is the material it is the same as stock or does it have a different texture
It's a rubbery texture. Better grip, IMO
The trigger limtis are good, it stops the trigger halfway so if you need quick actions - it doesn't go all the way down but still registers that you've pressed the button
For some reason my controller trigger stoppers make it where when I pull down the triggers nothing responds

Does this work on xbox series controllers
I believe it should work. The only major difference in the shell is the newer models are a little smaller. I believe the mount for the D-Pad should be the same, if not at least compatible.
Did you found any link that works for Malaysia?

What are the trigger locks for?
Cutting down the travel distance for the trigger. Makes shooter games react much faster.
Does dpad fits right. Does it stick properly?
The manufacturing tolerances might not be 100% fit, but it works well. The D-pad sticks well enough.
No. Not at all. The right buttons stop working when u press the left side
This is bogus because after installing this your left trigger button stays locked because the hall sensor is activated by the magnet in the left joystick. Don't waste your money on the stick kit. The d pad kit works fine
theres a reddit thread that suggest easy fixes like rotating the magnet so the polarities dont attract so its not bogus at all
The dpad dont work
Then you f'd something up I did this last year
@@Legacy_Tuning I put the original in the same way. It's not ment for the s
Is there any stick drift
Surprisingly, no. The stick is doing very well.
Thanks 😊
stick drift is widespread only on the xbox elite joystick, because of the adjustable tension, it's a design failure
Whats going on with the left grip stick at 6:30 please reply, I’m planning getting this but i not sure if is gonna work right.
It just takes some use to get it broken in properly. Will work with no problems after that
Bro I immediately looked in the comments that shit had a lazy eye
Where is the trigger stop link?
Here it is

Are the thumb sticks cheap material?
Errr... not sure how the cheap ones are defined. They're definitely not the highest quality for sure.
Tech Critter the ones you have don’t feel the same as the originals
Definitely don't feel original, yet it's good enough. Got the job done.
Tech Critter I don’t know if I should get it I don’t have much money to be spending on things I don’t need, is it worth it?

bro those trigger stops are the same exact ones i have you dont feel any rubberized part its just plastic
No, mine is definitely rubberized.
dude, you just got ripped off ,lmao
Yeah mine have rubber too
Yeah you got that bootleg
Where did you get the kit?
I got it online from Shopee.
You can also get it from Amazon US: amzn.to/3pxwt1H
Only thing that left to do is back buttons
Agreed!
Im poor and I'll make it :D
