There are no “diy kits” to make a controller from scratch.
If you want custom color combinations you can use the Xbox Design Labs website.

idc for shells. I meant like, are all of the internals in the link exactly what I need?

Could I buy the pcba with motors, buttons and thumbstick parts, and a seperate shell and I will be fine? idk what is different about the other pcba though

[lavish garden]

The repair parts program is no designed to be a DIY kit

[velvet furnace]

would everything needed to make one be in there then? sorry if I shouldn't ping you

[true ivy]

to repair a controller yes. build it urself no.

[velvet furnace]

[lavish garden]

NOTE: Even though Xbox is offering controller repair kits for sale now, self-repair discussion in this server beyond linking to said kits is still not allowed. Self-repair requires a moderate level of skill and knowledge to do and any errors in doing self-repair can result in damage that is not covered under any warranty. If you have questions that are not answered by the guides linked off the controller parts pages in the store, you likely do not posses the skills or knowledge for performing the self-repair and should seek out a repair shop to perform your repair.
