@Josh - it is always best to start on a low setting and work your way up. Every gun is a little different as far as temperature and air flow.

Hey i was wondering what the temperature should be on the heat gun? I've heard to hot can damage the LCD and melt the black rubber seal. what temperature heat gun would you recommend?

Helpful video. I replaced just the glass on my MacBook Pro with a Powerbook Medic part, and everything worked well. My glass was shattered, so I had to scrape and pick the tiny slivers off with a razor blade and a dental pick (use caution! the slivers are wicked sharp!). Even so, the whole operation took only about 30 mins. I did not remove the display from the keyboard assembly. Thanks Powerbook Medic!

@Robert - we sell a separate glass for the MacBook Pro. The one listed to the right is for the original MacBook unibody, and you'll want one with the correct text on it indicating a MacBook Pro instead of just MacBook.

Do you have to remove the display from the body of the laptop in order to replace the screen??? I have a cracked screen but my LCD is fine, if I just heat the edges and remove the broken glass and attach a new screen without taking the display panel off the body will this work???

@ George - Yes, you reuse your LVDS cable. You do not need another one.

Hey guys, looking to replace both the glass screen and the LCD on my MacBook, I have the new LCD but there is no LVDS cable, is it possible to just disconnect it from the original LCD and swap it over?
