- NS Joy-con L/R Lock Buckle Set Replacement Metal Latch with Open Tool

These fit perfectly and my OLED switch joy cons feels much more secure while I’m playing.The only con would be to add springs to it but I was able to use my stock OEM ones just fine.

Obviously the switch latches are cheap little plastic messes. We all know this, one soft fall and those joycons are NEVER holding tight to the device again which, horrifying as the thing falling out of your hand is never something you want. I replaced the set in mine as I was swapping out my joycon to a custom shell and holy crap, worth every second of effort. The play you had with the plastic latches where they seem to kinda have wiggle, absolutely gone. Suddenly your switch feels like it's a solid cohesive piece. I truly love these so much that I took the second pair and put them in my aftermarket joycons. They were maybe a 10 minute install for each pair, the way these will stay latched to your device in a way you'd never see from the OEM clips, wish nintendo had thought to use these themselves. Highly recommend buying them, I honestly did not use their screwdriver too much but the one time i had to I was very pleased, I just am techy and happen to have a set of nicer screwdrivers that fit better in my hand. Quality overall is a 10/10 everywhere

This came with everything I needed to fix some joy cons that kept sliding out of the switch.

This was very easy to replace the stock plastic ones.

These are easy to change as long as you have a good guide but do be careful. As for the product itself, I much prefer it to the original plastic. They really do feel locked in place, overall, great buy.

I've had my switch for a bit now, and I've noticed that the plastic latch on my right joycon has been starting to give out. These latches are a nice replacement and work very nicely. Being made out of metal and not plastic means it'll (hopefully) last a lot longer without chipping or deforming. Installation was pretty easy, and they hold in my Nintendo switch joycons nicely. Recommended!

I must have dropped my Switch because one of the joycons was no longer staying attached. I was able to quickly fix it with a repair guide from Ifixit. I didn't need to use the tools that were included in this kit. Even though I didn't need to replace it I also went ahead and replaced the buckle on the other joycon as well.
