[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1300198, member: 8287"] That machine has the glass on front. They say to get pro suction cups but I was broke and my 320GB drive died and I needed the machine. So I used the little suction cup on two refrigerator thermometers and the glass lifted right up! Just be VERY careful and do one side first. There are magnets all around the glass panel. Once you get that off, same directions at White 24". Torx screws around LCD, Cable plugs into Logicboard and be careful of the LCD's inverter wires. I think the Torx are 7 or 8 for the LCD screws but 5 for that small video connector on the LCD's cable. [/QUOTE]
