    i got the gamespot screenprotector from ebgames a while back and put them on. i wanted to take them off cuz the had much dust under, but only got to remove the top screen. the bottom screen is IMPOSSIBLE! i tried all types of tape, needles, and those grip cup things. they all failed. i dunno how to get them off! does anyone know how? or know how to open up a ds lite? i really wanna get em off!

    Needles?! You're crazy....

    I used a Pelican screen protector, and since it didn't have any adhesive on it I just had to use my nails to get it out.

    To get mine off, I used a USB connector. It is flat and small enough to fit on the side of the screen. I just pressed it gently against the side of the film and very gently pushed inward. It does not take much force, but it will eventually come up enough to where you can grab it. I used a cheap cover the first time. I replaced it with a Hori filter I got from Amazon.com from a seller. The quality is better and I had no trouble with bubbles and dust.

    Also, I bought a screen protector the other day when I got my ds at rhino video games.. and when I got home, i noticed it was the Hori brand protector, last I saw someone say, you couldnt get them in the US yet, so just to let everyone knoe they are available at rhino video games.
