Please provide a link to the vendor please ...

I picked up a white housing off this ebay seller:
http://myworld.ebay.com/freetrade21
I bought it to replace the damaged black housing on my n9, after a couple of bad falls onto the road.
The replacement was quite tricky, i stripped a few of the screws trying to remove them, and ended up having to drill them out.
Unfortunately I managed to damage it somehow, though i'm not exactly sure where. The phone boots up ok, but the camera no longer works. It just says "camera not responding".
So, it's doable but not without risks

Check it out! The case I got from Komazsys on Ebay fits perfect, is nice and glossy, and looks incredible. Definitely use them if you want to go over to white.

Ordered a white housing for my black N9. It looks great and those old black USB-cover and SIM trays fit perfectly to the white case. Replacement wasn't hard at all and I was done with it in 30 minutes.
But with my luck there is a problem with the speaker.
The sound is very weak and every time sound is about to be played there is a slight 'pop' in the speaker. I replaced the speaker unit from the old housing, but it did not help. I suspect the ribbon cable in the middle left is somehow broken in the white one. I have reconnected it several times, but didn't help. I had to go back to the old black housing (which works as it should).
Pity, as the white one truly is a beauty and surprisingly non-slippery.

Yeah the first go around is a bit tricky, I lost my front facing camera module but I don't really vid chat so it is not a big deal. Patience is key when swapping out a housing. Just take your time, double and triple check steps. Once you done it once, it becomes rather easy subsequent times you swap.
