[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1556551, member: 56379"] Not sure. I haven't had it done myself...and I can't remember the last time a Mac-Forums member had a display panel replaced...and told us about it. I think that logic boards are pretty much the most expensive single part to replace...and that can be around $500+ (for a 13" laptop logic board). In many cases if the computer is older (and not worth so much)...it's really not worth it to have an expensive repair like this done. This is why I was suggesting going to PowerbookMedic.com...and see how much a replacement display panel for your application will cost (new or used)...they sell both. Then go to iFixIt.com for the replacement procedure. If you can do the install yourself...you save yourself a bunch of "labor bucks"!:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
