Refresh the face of your detector with the genuine XP ICON Remote Control Top Kit. Whether you are dealing with a heavily scratched display window, a damaged outer bezel, or worn-out keypad buttons, this OEM replacement kit restores your remote's factory appearance and essential waterproof integrity.
Why Choose the Genuine XP Top Kit?
The front face of your remote control takes the brunt of the abuse in the field—from muddy gloves pressing buttons to accidental scrapes against rocks and brush. Manufactured in France by XP Metal Detectors, this top housing kit is the exact factory-original front shell used on brand-new ICON remotes.
At Serious Detecting, we believe in keeping your gear running for years to come. Instead of buying a completely new remote control because of cosmetic damage or a compromised front seal, this top kit provides a straightforward, cost-effective repair. It includes the front housing, display window, and button membrane, ensuring you maintain a perfect IP68 watertight seal for your next underwater or rainy hunt.

Complete Your Detector Maintenance
Opening up your remote for a housing swap is the perfect opportunity to handle other upgrades or maintenance. Build out your ultimate detecting kit with these essentials:
- Upgrade Your Search Coil: Maximize your depth and target separation by pairing your freshly repaired remote with a new fast multi-frequency coil from our coil selection.
- Refresh Your Digging Gear: A successful hunt requires reliable tools. Browse our heavy-duty Digging Tools, including stainless steel shovels, hand diggers, and water scoops specifically designed for the terrains where the ICON excels.
- Protect Your Remote: Once your new bottom kit is installed, prevent future damage by slipping your remote into a protective silicone cover or reinforced hip-mount case.
