New D-pad replacement for the Kobo Wireless ereader designed to fix some issues with existing models out there.

I saw two existing models out there for D-pad replacements and was not satisfied with them so I designed my own. It is designed to be printed with non-flexible filament (I used PETG, I'm sure PLA would be fine). The buttons are separate pieces from the D-pad “shell” so that they click each button independently, avoiding misclicks. It is held in place by the top frame of the Kobo.

Here is a guide on disassembly, you only need to remove the top case. I personally also installed this power button, but that requires removing (or at least unscrewing and adjusting) the motherboard as well (not hard, but a bit finnicky).
