Overview
This housing is built for modders who want flexibility and internal space for advanced projects. The MKII MAX rear housing is designed with additional internal space to support larger battery configurations, OEM slim hard drives, and optional taptic engine installations and fastens together with 4 fasteners instead of clips.
This rear shell is compatible with our MKII front housing (sold separately) and completes the enclosure for a full MAX build. We also have a MIN rear housing for those that want a smaller enclosure.
