Installation
The case is simple to install. The installation process basically consists and taking out the seven screws from the
outer casing, removing two more and swapping the internal parts into the new shell. Detailed installation instructions
are included on the products site so I won't go into great detail. One note though - make sure your middle live button
is working correctly before screwing the case back together as it can get jammed and not function.
Usage / Conclusion
Once installed the controller works normally, but looks great. The chrome finish really stands out and will be something
that will definitely impress your friends. There are no design flaws with the buttons as they work as normal. The product
is overall another great XCM invention and if you like chrome there's no reason to not pick one of these up.
