Default How To: Modify a V35/V37 Cover-UP for V36 (w/ pics)

I ordered the Cover-Up from thepocketsolution.com thinking that the the V35/V37 Cover-Up wasn't also meant for the V36 simply because the rear sticky section wouldn't clear the camera. I didn't realize until I got the Cover-Up that the V36 was about .5mm thicker as well. Because of that I had to make a couple modifications. On to the pictures:

So maybe it's a little short, but no big deal:


You can see from the side and bottom shots the gap produced by the foam hitting the screen near the top, the cover-up making slight contact with the d-pad, and the cover-up's clear plastic feet/spacers making contact with the handheld.




Here you can see the part of the hinge and the adhesive rear part that had to be modified. All I did was eye the parts that had to be removed and took my dremel to it.



And my favorite pics:


First I had to move the two plastic feet about 3/4" up to clear hitting the hardware buttons. Then I had to cut off about a half inch from the top section of the foam (for it to fit into the screen slot) and then I just moved it to the bottom. Then I cut out two slots for the cards to fit snuggly.

I'm glad I have this even though I'm sure when the Cover-Up actually comes out for the V36 it'll fit better, mine fits well enough.
