New V551 housing and keypad

I was just wondering if the instructions for installing a V400 housing applies to the V551. Also, has anyone done this specifically on a V551? The aftermarket keypad looks like it will work on all the buttons except for the camera and browser buttons, which is fine. Is this the case? Thanks. Oh and why do all the aftermarket keypads have the call/answer and hang-up/power buttons switched...that's pretty stupid.

This is the housing I just got...I love it, but the dotted pattern on the front that resembles a V400 is just tacky.
