Product Details Edit
Plastic Card
Use a stiff plastic card to open the front bezel on iMacs. Do not use a credit card because the raised numbers will get caught on the rear case.

My Problem
It had begun to crack in a few spots.
My Fix
The repair went very well. I did not need to remove the screen to install the bezel.
My Advice
Be extra careful with the small clips that help hold the bezel. They are delicate. Pry gently and try to avoid damaging the clips. Use a small flat blade to help install the clips being very easy.

My Problem
4 years old battery; I need my MBA for à long trip; so I prefered to put à new battery
My Fix
With your guide and tools, it was very easy to replace the battery; only 10 screws to remove, then a few others to remove the battery and I replaced it; nice
My Advice
Take care : screws are very small, it's easy to loose them; put them in a safe place, a magnetic screwdriver is not bad idea
My Problem
I am a technician and we have been passing around the $5 coupon for iFixit so we could all order the Base Toolkit. It came to my turn and I joyfully ordered it, along with a couple of other essentials.
My Fix
Any repairs using the kit have gone swimmingly. It seems to have everything I need and then some.
My Advice
Shop iFixit for your tool needs! They have everything you need and the checkout/delive

My Problem
The display on my MacBook was blacking out more and more frequently. Looked up the problem and found this step-by-step guide to fix it on ifixit.com. Having the needed parts and tools tied to the article was a huge help!
My Fix
The instructions were incredible - great pictures, very clear instructions. I was able to do it myself and save a ton of money in the process. I love how they have all the parts you need right there on the how-to guide. I received the parts/tools super fast, and the repair was a breeze.
My Advice
My MacBook has a plastic shell. Be careful when re-assembling the unit, because it's easy to push the optical drive slot down a bit - making it hard to insert CDs. I was able to fix (my mistake) by opening up the slot a little with a knife later.
My Problem
Saturday morning when I started the Macbook the screen blinked then remained black.When I put a flashlight behind the screen, I could see the fish of my start up screen. I closed the computer and started several time. Sometimes the computer started correctly and sometimes not. I could use the computer with an old external screen and a VGA cable. When I searched the french web for a solution, I found that someone had fixed it by changing the Inverter with the help of IFixit. However, I should have looked a bit further and I could have found that the cable of the inverter could also be the cause of the failure
My Fix
I followed the instructions online on my old IBook and appreciated the advised tools that I bought with the inverter. I must say that I enjoyed opening the computer and I took my time.It was bringing back the old the fun of the building blocks for children thought it was more easy to follow the steps on the laptop then reading a leaflet. My wife interrupted me to fix the christmas tree trunk on his support.I must say that it was a bit difficult to steady my movements and getting back to the screwdriver after handling the chain saw. I finished the job, thought, but the screen still did not lit
My Advice
After looking throught Ifixit web site I found that it could be the inverter cable.I made an other bet and ordered a cable to the display inverter and I am waiting for it
My Problem
My screen would go black from time to time, and only opening and closing the lid several times would fix it.
My Fix
It was approximately two full hours of concentrated work, especially the reassembly of the display took awhile, but I got it together again. There is a little more damage to the plastic rim than before the repair, but it still looks quite pretty for a more than 4 year old.
My Advice
I followed the repair guide strictly, and that did the thing. No surprises and a great feeling when it boinged again and the screen lit up...
