I used a small blade to remove the 4 screw adhesive covers and a small Philips screw driver to remove all external screws then the internal 4 screws mounting the LCD between the metal bracket.

If you need one and if it is not included, you should be able to salvage the one you have from the broken screen. This is something you should check out before re-assembly to save yourself some trouble.

You will need the tools. These include a pentalobe screwdriver, torx 4, the plastic screen removal tool and the guitar pick looking tool. Look up the esourceparst video on you tube and stop/repeat it as needed during installation. It's not too bad ;-)

Jerry, it's pretty easy to replace these screens. I knew how to (but looked up video on YouTube to make sure I did it correctly).

Because this screen is used for several models and different manufacturers, I recommend you to find a video on how to disassemble your exact computer or model. Sometimes manufacturers post those videos, youtube is also a good source for those. I general you will need small Philips screwdrivers, some magnetic tips and some plastic tools to open the case where the screen goes.

I would suggest that you go to eBay and do a search for a replacement screen using your model number. Review the search results and then email the seller giving them your model number and serial number. They will then supply you with the replacement you need. Replacing the screen is not difficult.

If only the screen is broken not the glass, this will work fine. I suggest you watch this video--->https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSolxo06yb0Followed his instructions when I bought this screen and it turned out great. I would also suggest buying Macbook screen glue here on Amazon as well because my glue lost its tackiness while replacing. Good luck!

A very small Phillips screwdriver is needed to get to the battery. However you'll also need prying tools (plastic ones preferably) and new adhesive for the screen at the very least

The screen it self is held in place by sticky tape or you can use glue. If you search YouTube for the product you can see everything that it comes with. It took me about 30 min to replace the screen.

Just the screen but you might want the 3M brand 2mm tape too. Mine doesn't actually stay in securely but I think that's more of the fault of me ruining the edges from drops. Make sure you get the screen nice and hot with a hairdryer before trying to pry the screen off or you're going to ruin your LCD. And don't forget to pop out your battery, sim card, and memory card. To be honest replacing a screen isn't easy and a lot can go wrong so make sure you watch all the youtube videos before attempting.

Hello. Its been a few months since I replaced screen but if I can recall I used a utility knife and a really small electronics screw driver. You have to be really careful when taking the plastic rim that surrounds the screen off (use to hands) as it is fragile plastic that will crack. Its pretty straight forward and easy. Good luck.

It is a touch screen, but very complicated to replace, you will want to look at it done on YouTube to get a better idea of the process.

Kirby,This screen comes with all the parts to get the job done. Use this video on youtube to install properly (very easy to install took 20minutes to do myself): http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wVPzHjhqQLc

If your screen is shattered or cracked, this is all you need unless some other component was damaged. My display was missing colors and it turned out the cable connector on the screen side was bad. If you're doing it yourself, you need special tools and replacement clips that usually break when you pry the case open.
