Introduction
Use this guide to replace the LCD bezel assembly on your Lenovo ThinkPad T460 laptop.
The screen bezel assembly comprises two parts: a thin LCD bezel sheet secured to the laptop with adhesive and the plastic border secured to the laptop with screws and clips. The LCD bezel assembly covers the internal components within the screen assembly including the WLAN and WWAN antennas and camera/microphone module. You may need to replace your screen bezel if it is cracked or damaged. Be sure to clean any remaining adhesive on the display assembly and reapply fresh adhesive when installing a new display bezel for best results.
Make sure to disable the internal battery, power down your device, and disconnect from any external power sources before you begin.
