Specs:
I've heard of people asking of the dot mice from laptops, but I don't know how well that works or if it could put pressure on the top screen. I've done the PSP cap mod on two systems (a Galaxy Blue N3DSXL and a Black Friday N3DS) and it's been the best thing ever! It's super easy to move the camera in any game (Monster Hunter and even Hyrule Warriors: Legends is easy to use the camera on, and the camerawork was a fight on its own in HW:L), it's got a larger surface area while not interfering with the ABXY face buttons, and it's flat enough to not press against the top screen when properly installed (you may hurt your thumb shoving it on).
I got extra PSP caps in case one ever popped off or wasn't formed right and I've only had to replace one on the smaller N3DS because when I installed it, I deformed one of the pieces of plastic on the PSP cap inside the oval so it was wobbling too much on the C-stick plastic. The actual C-stick nub under the rubber is a square diamond shape, but the PSP cap is an oval with 4 thin plastic tabs in the shape of a square, those tabs need to be aligned right when you're pushing down so it fits on the plastic square and doesn't wobble too much.
The PSP caps are cheap for a multi-pack off Amazon so just get the 3 pack if you're doing one and the 5 pack if you're doing two or three. I highly recommend the Insten brand as some people have had issues installing some other brands. I used Insten for both of my units and they've been working flawlessly for over 7 months of pretty heavy use as I play a lot of Monster Hunter.
Another bonus: Once they're on there, they don't fall off. You'd have to really pick at it with your fingernails or a tool to pop the cap off once you shove it on there. I recommended the extras are in case you deform the cap on installation so you've got backups.
