The cable yingwang01 is talking about is the ribbon cables which attach directly to the LCD glass panel. again keep the case warm for a good half hour.īy - No its not the displays data cable, thats for sure! (the cable from your logic board to the display) Use care! Don't roll over the edge or go into the active display area.ĥ - Flip the system over so the weight of the case is pressing on the display (desk covered with a clean towel) apply some weight I use a 20 lbs dumb weight on the foot to help press.

Make sure you don't block the microphone hole/s depending on the model.ģ - Attach the display (still warm) use a hair dryer/heat gun to keep the edge warm! Not hot!!Ĥ - With the system on its back use a rubber roller to press the display down so the adhesive has been pressed into the glass. You might find a heat pad works well for the display! We only need to heat the edges.Ģ - Apply the proper tape strips onto the case. Use a plastic razor blade covered with a micro cloth dampened with reagent grade isopropyl alcohol 85% or better on the metal surfaces you can use Goof Off but you will need to use the isopropyl alcohol afterwards to clean it off.ġ - Warm the case and the display assembly as a cold case or display will interfere with the adhesives ability to adhere! Use a hair dryer or heat gun to warm the case. Use care as you can damage the black paint either scratching it or stain it with the solvent. Fully clean off the remaining adhesive on the display. Fully clean the metal case edge of any remaining adhesiveĢ.

Yep! Them's the rules in taking it off! Here's the rules on putting it back on:ġ.
