Hi, just a recommendation for people. When opening the trigger mechanism you actually don't need to remove the black round gear since it does not obstruct the pin holding the trigger cap. Just leave it exactly in place and do not move its position, doing so will make sure you reassemble it correctly.
Thanks for this video it's really helpful
Thanks for your advice, will pin your comment! :)
@@ExtremeRate my r2 l2 didn't come with the thing you put the pin through
Do you go,😊

@@ExtremeRatehey please respond, can I get the names of the tools used in the video?
@@VectorM67small screwdriver 🪛 and prying tool that’s all you need
Thank you. Looked intimidating at first. But I kept watching the video and got through it.
I would have LOVED if you had actual closeups of the really detailed parts. Please do that if you ever make another video. I completed the controller, but not without a lot of hassle because these scenes were not zoomed in enough.
My controller is different than this one.. it doesn’t have a white piece at the top, only the clear plastic. Also no screws on the top portion where the mapping is for the buttons. The way the triggers are installed is way different on mine too. I have the BDM-020, can you please make an updated video
I'm having the same issue. I found this video. ua-cam.com/video/W2OHOFgiASU/v-deo.html
my controller is the same one
I was thinking about doing this before I watched this video. Glad I did, too much work going to leave controller as is. Thanks.
hey guys, just finished installing one of your kits. worked great. however you should update the video to work with the newer version of the dual sense. There are some differences in assembly I had to guestimate. All in all though, quality product, I purchased the translucent blue ones with the front cover as well for my light blue V2 DS5. Looks amazing now.
Same here. Struggling with the triggers
Common knowledge should let you get around most kinks in the differences. I installed the kit with the newer controller. I could help!

@DaEngineer I slready did it, it didn't take long. I was only leaving a comment to mention they should have an updated guide
@@Spectrre_K31 I can’t figure it out🥲
Swapped out my buttons and lower face plate with chrome blue ones from you guys today. All fit perfectly and it looks awesome 😁
It's great that you love them!!! :D
Are you not supposed to put the tension springs back on the L2 and R2 buttons? I replaced mine and now the L2 and R2 buttons are kind of tight. When I press them down they hold in that position for a second or 2 before snapping back up to their normal position. Any advice or tips to correct this would be greatly appreciated.
On the video you can see them back on but guess it didn’t make it in the video 😒
It is at the same time more complicated and simple than the previous ones😁. thanks to your video I left no traces or marks🖖
I truly appreciate the detail you put in this video. New sub 💯
Thanks for the sub!
Thank you so much, everything was very clear! Finished in no time and correctly installed everything back 😁
Great to hear! :D
Holy cow! I almost crapped myself doing this! Don't get me wrong, the instructions are great, easy to follow, and over all the process was a lot simpler than I thought it would be.
My issue was at 13:47. I went to grab that pin for the trigger and... where did it go?... I laid it down with the rest of the items, but it was gone! I moved everything around even ended up cleaning my desk off thinking it may have rolled under something. I checked the floor, my pockets, and even my shoes. Couldn't find that sucker anywhere...! After 45 Minutes of searching I finally resigned myself to getting a new Controller, and began putting what I could back together and GUESS WHAT I FOUND STUCK TO THE HAPTIC MOTOR! That little sucker must have rolled a little and got picked up by the magnetic part of the motor. SO... Pay attention folks and check the magnets!
4:35 shows how well these are put together when the masters even have difficulty getting them apart! 👌
lol It's better than the Elite 2, they use extremely sticky tape to make the front shell stays lol
@@ExtremeRate when could just use clips etc? 🤔
@@colarmstrong57 They have clips already, but they want more secure lol
@@ExtremeRate I think it's mainly to try stop you guys from customising them again 🤭
Man that took a WHILE x_x but I followed the tutorial and I eventually got it done! ^^
Great! Good job!!
Not even exaggerating it just took me 24 hours to finish my controller. I kept getting pissed off and having to walk away lol
@@joshuajoel947 lol
@@joshuajoel947 Yeah best not to do that shit pissed off lol I’d fuck it up n then be more pissed lol
Holy crap this controller is like trying to disarm a damn trip mine. Had me sweating and shaking 😂 but I got it done both face plate and buttons
You are awesome bro!!!
The trigger add a whole new level of difficulty to this. I can did everything else except triggers. Requires more alot of patience
Watching like yup I can totally do this until 5:54 and beyond😅 never mind just a face plate would do
oh... If you have big fingers, you need a tweezers to do that step
@@ExtremeRate it’s not that I don’t feel comfortable taking apart my controller like that maybe when I get a 2nd controller I’ll try it
@@KillaFormer9898 You should lol
Yeah I feel the same way. I’m iffy about taking apart my controller cuz my ass somehow would manage to fuck it up lol
@@officialrogueent6836 when you finish your first job you will love this work lol
Pure awesomesauce! 🤟🏻 Just put mine together using this and one of your other videos, thank you so much. 👍🏼
You are most welcome!!! :)
What other video ?
I was hoping to find a faster method, but I guess that's as fast as it gets. I hate how changing the R2/L2 buttons makes the process much longer and a bit trickier. The rest is pretty quick and easy.
Is there any R1,R2/L1,L2 buttons for the bm-30 remote?
Yo I BOUGHT everything off you guys amazing keep doing what you doing everone watcging this video return thw buttons you got and get them from these people
Just got mine and it looks nice really cool product thanks for making cool designs for the ps5 controller
Glad to know that and you are most welcome!
great job but what about back buttons?
They're in the works
They told me March, but possibly April.
Please stay tuned!
🔥 thanks bro!!! I just need to to the back buttons. I’m scared 😂 this was pretty easy and I always break stuff and this I’m I didn’t
Best help I found 😅 had take it apart in order to fix r2 button
Hi, I'm also having trouble with my r2 button, what did you end up doing to fix it (like cleaning the part or completely swapping it out)?
These buttons would look awesome on my purple dual sense.
PLEASE RESPOND; so I did this with my faceplate like 5 times or more like that all day on online school, and the l2 button Is sticking and the adaptive works and it just sticks down snd the r2 button is clicking like tic Tic Tic. It’s annoying and i did this process and I have been watching this video a lot too and I commented a while ago on the other controller (touchpad) that’s fixed and I got new r2 and l2 shocks and that does not work. And whenever I close my controller (when I’m done,) the l2 button gets stuck when you press it snd you have to like pull it up. So please help me!
Please check the gears inside of the L2 R2, they must be messed up.
I purchased a couple of these kits months ago so i could color code my controllers. I purchased a new controller the other day and was wondering if there are any plans to make a kit like this for the new model. Thanks much and after 6 months of daily use the other kits are holding up great!
Oh theres lots
Thank you I was able to swap my ps5 controller shell and buttons, and i even managed to end up with 2 extra screws 😅
Thank you! Great video and was extreme-ly (sorry) helpful when replacing my buttons. I replaced my touch pad as well (had done this already on ps4 controller so I knew how) and all went well. Only problem is my controller is a bit different than this one and I had one screw left over, no idea where it came from 😅 oh well lol I'm sure it won't make a difference anyhow...thanks again 🙂
It took me a little time because I tightened the screws too much, but finally got the red chrome buttons and joysticks on mine.
Great!
Do you recommend I don’t wanna break my controller lol
@@lavellecole9082 I absolutely do. Just a little patience and you'll be fine.
@@RedEyezDemon thx
I'm getting the chrome gold replacements for the midnight black dualsense controller when it comes out
Would be a great match!
Do you guys have plans to release the actual housing for the dualsense I've been using your products for years now for both Xbox and ps4
Hi bro, the front and back shell of the DualSense is coming, please stay tuned!
@@ExtremeRate omg yes please im dying out here oem is never the answer
@@CobbInterscope :D
Just bought off you guys from Amazon only needed a L1 because I dropped my remote off my desk and the freaking button just disappeared so hopefully it comes ASAP thanks guys y’all the only people that make buttons for the ps5
All of our items will be delivered by Amazon, which will fast! Great to know that we help!!! :D
Just wanted to point out that there is a new PS5 controller revision that is not fully compatible with these replacement buttons. I just got my hands on a PS5 and bought an additional controller. The internals of the controller that came with the PS5 are slightly different. In particular, R2 and L2 have a new internal shape, so the replacements do not fit properly (The trigger will not be able to press down all the way). I struggled with my first controller for about an hour and then decided to open the other one and compare. The replacement L2 and R2 fit right away into the "older" version of the controller.
The new revision has all silver screws instead of black, and does not have the white plastic bar shown at 6:55. If you have one of those I would recommend not even trying replacing the shoulder buttons. The face buttons come off exactly the same as shown in the video though.
Do you plan on updating your R2/L2 buttons to match the new PS5 controller revision? It's really a shame the buttons I got are not compatible with my controller.
@@patricionoyola6004 Thanks for the information! But unfortunately all of the controllers here are "old" versions. So where have you bought the new version controller? And could you please let me know the model number that is printed on the bottom case of it? And if possible, could you please take some photos of the differences inside the controller and send them to ray@extremerate.com? That would be a great help for us! Thank you!!
@@ExtremeRate sure thing. I'll send over an email later in the week
@@patricionoyola6004 Haven't got your email yet bro
I thought I got two L2 buttons because it only works on one side and they’re designed the same. The notch only fits properly on the left side but I guess this is because it’s a kit for older models? Based on the trigger and your images I have BDM-020 but I also have silver screws and no white plate. Really disappointing the triggers don’t work
Great video! I snapped on of the ribbon cables 😢 thankfully it only seems to be the light for the controller, everything else works fine
yea words would’ve helped explain you just need to remove ribbon and not entire mechanism, im hoping mine was just the light as well as i’ve likely fucked it up, can’t even find a video with someone explaining what they’re doing, shi stupid
Will there be a version with button labels like x square triangle and circle
Will have something like that in the next few months
They changed the insides of the controllers. Got a updated video?
My r1 button has some type of defect. When I press it down it gets stuck in place. I looked closely at the inside and it doesn't seem to be damaged or defective. But it isn't usable
Do you know what I’m supposed to do after I accidentally rip a flex cable
I did the same thing with the mic flex cable, ordered a replacement on amazon for $6
@@katherineashley6804 thank you
Missing the inside buttons for the L2 and R2 buttons. Only found out when it was too late and was very sad 😥
this needs to be updated. My dualsense has different parts inside
Cool thing is the r1 and l1 can come off easily and be changed just like the front faceplate can everything else of course you have to take the controller apart for
:)
So the shell is not as hard to open as I thought. But everything else is much more complicated than the DS4
Correct, there are more components than the DS4.
DS4 is cool
Soooo. After doing this my R2s “adaptive trigger” feature no longer works. Any idea why?
Please check the gears in the adaptive trigger part if they installed correctly. You can compare it with the left one (but don't mess up the left one..)
This is the best toturial i ever see thank you so much for this :)
Thank you and you are most welcome!! :D
Hate to say it but I’m getting a refund the r1 and L1 are just too big for my controller but if there is a way to fix this please drop a videos about it🙏
I just bought triggers buttons LED kit paddles clicky buttons a front shell a trim and clear interchangeable joystick and buttons all from extremerate I'm gonna show everybody the end result
Can't wait bro!
Bravissimi, sono contento di vedere uscire i primi prodotti per DualSense. Avete come sempre tutta la mia stima ;)
Grazie mille fratello !!! Come sempre!!!
Why no solid home button like you originally showed?
It's not looking good
I reassembled my controller with no problems however now the controller has a weird clicking sound that happens at random? Not from any of the buttons like the controller itself just makes a click sound
I’m so confused how to change my triggers, I don’t have the screws on the front of the controller under where the buttons go so idk what to do now
You guys should make a xbox elite series 2 see through case with led lights if that’s possible. I would def cop. Plz respond
Sorry, we did not make the mold for the bottom shell of Elite 2 :(
I wish the set came with custom PS button also.
We are not dare to do so lol
They will get sued haha
@@Fixiefre123ak possibly...
Yea definitely trademark lol
I don't like how complicated it is, because I'm too scared to break my controller or something cause I'm not good at taking electronics apart.
You save my controller. Thanks a lot
You are most welcome!
Great video , Thanks very much !!
L2 and R2 are too big for the case, you push them down and they dont spring back up, they're stiff
What's the version of your controller? Please refer to this link to identify your controller version: gamingcobra.com/blogs/news/how-to-identify-bdm-010-bdm-020-version-of-ps5-controller
Dude I’m not blaming it on y’all but some wires got pulled out of my controller due to it just hanging I couldn’t really hold it in place either but please do update am installation video for the updated controllers
Just followed along with this video. Some of mine is different internally and the L/R buttons don't fit. So I wasn't able to use them but the rest fit.
Thank you very much, this video helped me
What about the spring on the L2 and R2 ?
You don't need to take them off during the installation
Triggers didnt fit and i had to force it back out sense the metal bar was jammed in there i was able to fix it and put the old black ones back on but now my controller does a constant click on the right trigger mechanism at all times when the controller is on
So I followed the video and I didn’t switch out my R2 cause I wanted to keep those ones black but for some reason my r2 isn’t working now. Are they any ideas why?
Very nervous. Ordered buttons how difficult is it with the step by step? I’m nervous about breaking something
Samee
If you mod a PS4 controller before, this mod is easy for you. If this is the first time to mod a controller, then you have to watch the video carefully and follow it step by step, it won't be very difficult. Just put more attention on the L2 R2 triggers.

How can I be notified about new products from you guys?
Subscribe to our channel, normally we will upload the installation video when new products on sale.
I followed this tutorial and now I have the orange blinking lights after install what do I do?
Hello, this installation worked well, except I was sent two R1 buttons, how can I contact someone to get the missing L1 button I need?
We are sorry about that please contact us via email to info@extremerate.com, we will send you the replacement immediately.
I dont understand the r2 and l2 part mine doesn't have screws on the from of it to get it off
ever since I put these on, my L2 is making a clicking sounds.
After install, I have this constant clicking on the left side of the controller when I turn it on
After getting mine in pink
Everything fit exdcpt the triggers
I literally had to sand them down in the back just to get then to fit in the housing
I discovered the paint was the problem
I thought the plastic was pink all the way through
But sanding down the back showed me that its white plastic with pink paint
Maybe go thinner when apply the coats please. Other then that the buttons work and everything fits
Sorry for the issue and thanks for your suggestion. We will report this to our factory!
Purchased these buttons and the R1 button broke within 2 days because it somehow got stuck in my control, this company just ignored me asking if they are able to send a replacement, considering with the product they send you a card which tells you to contact them on social media, so I did, they ignored me, I highly doubt I will be giving these guys any more money
Just installed on my controller. Are the triggers (L2/R2) suppose to feel much different? Mine feel super slow and shorter actuation
If you are using the older BDM-010 controllers (CFI-ZCT1* not CFI-ZCT1*A). The issue could be the motor reassembly where the trigger arm wasn't line properly with the wheel. However, I doubt you would've messed up with both.
The more likely reason is you are using the newer model in which the trigger buttons are the only ones that don't work with the new Controllers. They do not fully extend by a tiny bit, and will not fully depress by almost a 1/4 inch.

great vid. got mine working. any ideas how to make the controller fit on the charger
Thanks. But what do you mean by make the controller fit on the charger?
okay love your work but gold on white is a huge disservice to the controller lol hope to see some better color combos love your work
lol, our front and back shells for the DualSense is coming out in March, you can mix and match with them :)
I’m usually good with my hands but I’m a little worried about doing this even after watching this video should I be?i’m scared to start and not be able to finish it for any reason.
If you ever replaced the buttons or shell for PS4 controller, it's easy for you. If not, then you have to follow the video carefully.
@@ExtremeRate I have but I can’t remember which Generation controller maybe the PS4 I’m always changing something lol.thanks for the message bk what’s the worst can happen just buy another controller lol
@@craigjonsmith That's right lol
I messed up on my wife's controller and ended up snapping one of the wires that go to the rumble attachment. A quick soldering job, but probably the worse thing I've encountered. Just be patient and careful.
If you just want to do the back buttons (R1,R2 L1,L2) do you have go right down to the mother board or can you just flip and change them
You still have to do so.
