This guide shows how to remove and replace a cracked controller ring shell for your Meta Quest 2 controller.

    • Heat an iOpener and apply it to the bottom edge of the controller faceplate for a minute.

    Why is this step needed? Yes there is adhesive on it, but it isn't that bad.

    you dont need it, prob better to have it but not required to get the cover off

    For anyone stumbling across this like me, I can agree with the others: it is almost definitely a nice to have I'm sure, but I was able to get in just fine using an opening pick and opening tool.

    • The controller faceplate is secured with adhesive and three friction pegs.

    • Press the edge of an opening tool into the seam between the controller faceplate and shell, near the Oculus button.

    • If you can’t get the opening tool into the seam, heat the area with an iOpener for a minute and try again.

    • Slide the opening tool to the base of the ring shell to loosen the adhesive.

    • Use an opening tool to pry up on the seam to loosen the first friction peg.

    • Continue prying around the entire faceplate to separate the remaining friction pegs and adhesive.

    • If you're having trouble, apply a heated iOpener to the faceplate for a minute and try again.

    • Remove the controller faceplate.

    • The three friction pegs should hold the faceplate securely, so you don’t need to replace the adhesive during reassembly. Be sure to firmly press the faceplate onto the controller so that all friction pegs fully engage.

    • Use a Torx T5 driver to remove the four screws securing the controller ring shell to the controller:

    • Two 4.7 mm‑long screws

    • Two 5.9 mm‑long screws

    those top screws in red are in very tight, and at an angle that prevents using a long screwdriver. I've found the only way I could get them out is using a bit, held down by my finger at the appropriate angle, while turning it with pliers.

    Ben Klopfenstein - Responder

    I wasn't able to remove the screws in red with a T5 bit, but switching to a T4 bit did the trick for me

    Aranohr - Responder

    same, used T4 instead

    • Use your fingers to grab the end of the ring shell that doesn’t have the white alignment square.

    • Remove the controller ring shell.
