Title:

Can I replace original CCFL screen with LED backlit screen?

Text:

I have a MacBook Pro "Core 2 Duo" 2.4 17-Inch (Santa Rosa) Mid/Late 2007, 2.4GHz - MA897LL/A - Model No: A1229 (EMC 2137). It was factory supplied with the 1920 x 1200 CCFL-backlit display.

My screen is flickering intermittently which I believe may be related to the inverter board, or the CCFL is past it's best. Is it possible to replace the inverter?

If not, can I replace the current CCFL 1920 x 1220 screen with the slightly newer LED backlit screen that was used in the Mid 2008 Macbook Pro A1261?
