Step 5: Heat the Front Glass Adhesive

  • Display ko flat surface pe carefully lay down.

  • Gently warm the black adhesive strip around the front glass edges using low heat. 


Step 6: Lift Off the Front Glass

  • Attach suction cup near glass edge. Pull softly.

  • Use spudger to gently pry; insert between glass and LCD to detach around top/right edges. 


Step 7: Remove and Replace Glass Panel

  • Once edges are released, lift up and rotate glass out.

  • Clean inside of glass and LCD before reassembly—dust or fingerprints are very visible. 


Step 8: Reassemble Display & MacBook

  • New glass ko correct position mein align karo.

  • Display ko wapas base se hata-panel attach karo, hinges secure karo.

  • Reconnect camera and speaker cables.

  • Battery connect karo.

  • Lower case wapas fit karke 10 screws tighten karo.


Final Check:

  • MacBook on karo.

  • Confirm karo ki glass clean, aligned, aur secure hai.

  • Display clarity aur touch (if applicable) sahi hai ya nahi verify karo.


Extra Tips:

  • Heat it slowly—high heat can melt rubber strip around display.

  • Use a guitar pick to keep lifted edges separated until adhesive fully loosened.

  • This method lets a fresh glass look without replacing full LCD — cost-effective solution.
