No too hard, but don't make my mistake.

Very difficult

My Problem

Screen went from having a single neon blue line running vertical down it, to simply having no picture at all.

My Fix

Following the instructions everything took less than 45 minutes to do. Unfortunately for me when I reassembled I got picture, but no backlight. When taking it apart for the second time; when unplugging the Disply converter cable from the I/O board, the spudger ended up breaking off the connector. So I've ordered a new I/O board, as well as display convertor in hopes to fix it all for the last time.

My Advice

Careful removing the display convertor cable, as I mentioned above. I'm going to be using a small needle nose this next time around.
