replaced hard drive successfully; but 2 very tiny pins are left over
now 3 very thin stripes appear vertically on right side of screen. Any idea where the pins (which look like mini safety pins) go? I think they are part of the LCD and may fit along the edge - which might be a factor with the thin lines. Any help appreciated
Is this a good question?

These are 1/4" x 1/16" , paper thin clips or springs as they have a bit of flex. They appeared after the hd was installed and I was replacing the LCD. I really think they have to do with the LCD fitting properly, as the thin lines to the right side almost appear to me due to the display not exactly 100% correctly seated.
Thanks for you help.

Thanks for your comments, the imac is in my daughter's home. as soon as I get photos of the extra parts and the screen I'll send them up. In mean time I'll tell her to zap the PRAM.

Yes, I really hoped the second photo might help. Strange no one can identify. What are the two cables called that connect the LCD to main part of the computer. I think youadvised someone to replace the LVCD cable or whatever instead of replace the LCD.
