Hi,
I would like to replace the housing on my 3GS which is cracked badly. I do have couple of questions.

The bezel looks fine and i would like if possible to replace only the back housing. I have bought a back housing for the iPhone 3GS without the bezel and without camera plastic and headphone ring.

This is the item i got :

1. Is it possible to move the bezel from the old one to the new housing with a nice result ?
2. Can the headphone ring be moved the new housing ?
3. I found pictures that the camera holder can be moved to the new housing very simple, same with the ring for the camera. Is it true ?

Here is a pic of Headphone ring and camera holder.

I do know there is housing with bezel and all the mentioned parts mounted already so no need to buy those but now i got the housing without those so let's keep it to what i got.

I would like people who have done this and have experience to answer me. I want to know if the result can be good in the end by doing all this ?

thanks in advance
