[QUOTE="techiesteve, post: 1682878, member: 98520"] There is a reason way Apple or an AASP write the serial # on the inside of a new bottom case. They can only enter a repair if they can read a visible serial #, and if the logic board has failed in most cases the base serial # is the only source. On some, not all MBP's, the product serial # is also on the memory socket next to the board serial #. You could therefore simply write the serial # inside the bottom cover so you could explain to any potential future purchaser this has been done as new bottom cases aren't supplied with a serial #.
