1 - 2 hours

Moderate

My Problem

Might I suggest to always close your MacBook before pulling cables. Any amount of torque on a cable can cause it to jump back over onto you laptop. If your closing the display when this happens it can be surprisingly easy to break the display if the cable jumps between the laptop and display.

My Fix

The repair took me about an hour and was not difficult at all... or should I say, not difficult once I figured how to reconnect the 3 antenna leads. I had to wear two pairs of readers at the same time so I could see what I was doing, LOL.

My Advice

Although the instructions where clear on how to take the Airport antenna leads off, I found myself a bit lost when trying to reconnect them. Once I figured that you have to get them lined up and then give a good press, they will click into place the remaining two where fairly easy. You might could mention that.
