How to correctly fit thumb grips to the Nintendo Switch Joy-cons

Note: Fitting thumb grips to any controller is fiddly, but because the Nintendo Switch Joy Cons are smaller than other console controllers, correctly fitting thumb grips is more difficult.

• Direct the thumb controller at an angle under the lip of the thumb grip.
• Now slowly and gently rotate the thumb grip, feeding the thumb controller into the thumb grip lip.
• If the rubber on the thumb grip is elastic enough you can try to pull the thumb grip over the stick of the controller.
• Finish up by gently rotating the thumb grip around the head of the controller to make sure it’s secure.
