In this video I will show you how to replace the left Joy Con controller for a Nintendo Switch Lite. Viewer comment from @AcidxAnarchy: There is a little channel on the right side just below the corner that it is supposed to fit into. Its like a little circle when a gap going down the center, the tape is supposed to rest in there I believe. If you put the tape to the left side of the channel, when you put it back together the metal plate piece will pinch and lay on top of it. From what i saw in the video, this guy did the same thing I did and didn't notice. I had to take the plate back off after inspecting everything and fix the tape.
