Hello everyone,
Merry Christmas! To start with! Basically, I've got a 60gb ipod for xmas. It's ex-display and so it was really really reduced - unused but handled. Anyway, works perfectly BUT it's pretty scratched - I mean I can see the screen but I bought it a replacement back and front housing on ebay and I wanted to replace it all. But it's all..connected inside -I mean there are screws attaching the front to the LCD screen but I'm scared of cocking it up, but I don't know where to send it. It does have a years guarantee with apple but they're gonna charge me for sure and knowing I have the means to do it - I was wondering if anyone here knew a way of 'guiding me' through it, what not to touch, is this an impossible quest?!
Thank you

Has guides for disassembling ipods,
To be honest just take it really slow, the only thing you shoulden't really touch is the inside surface of the screen/chassis otherwise you'll get prints that wont wipe off. Also don't try to operate the ipod when it's in peices, I've bricked a phone that way!
