Well this was bound to happen sooner or later. I've had my DS Lite for about 6 or 7 years now and a little more than half that time the hinge has been broken, so I decided to replace the outer shell. I got the bottom half out just fine, but when I took out the top screen, the ribbon cable tore. Now I have to order a new screen (and I might as well order a mic with in since that went out with the hinge.
