2015 3DS Digitizer Replacement Steps?

Hello All,

I'm looking to replace the lower mid-frame on my new 3DS XL as some of the screw holes were broken and needed to replace it , but the mid-frame I obtained does not bring a digitizer attached to it and was trying to find out how I could remove the digitizer off of my old mid-frame as it has no flaws or scratches and re use it on the new mid-frame I purchased but I cant seem to find a guide or steps on replacing it anywhere and don't want to risk damaging it just trying to remove it.

What would be the safest way to remove and replace the digitizer from one to the other?

Thanks in advance!

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Jorge, There is no repair guide for the Digitizer, however, you can look at the Teardown for the 2015 3DS XL which shows step by step and tools needed for repairs. Here is the link to the Teardown along with the list of tools needed if you wish to purchase from iFixit;

I also included a link i found to buy the Digitizer from eBay;

I hope these links help you and please let us know, John
