touch id is on the home button not the actual lcd, use the original home button and metal backplate and it should be fine

Hey Danny, G makes a good point. Your answers are always technically correct but they would be even better if you fleshed them out a bit and linked some guides from the iFixit library!

@djdannyrock well documented answers become a treasure trove for people seeking help with the same issue. One great answer is so much better than ten so-so answers.
