701c LCD Replacement without total disassembly

#1 Post by Thinkpad4by3 » Mon Mar 27, 2017 6:14 am

Is there a way to replace the LCD assembly without taking out the whole keyboard? I can't find my T1 screwdriver :x.!

I decided I found a Allen Key 0.7MM and guess what? It fit. Who knew a .7 Allen Key fit in case anyone also cant locate those pesky T1 bits. :D Well, just after I found that the doorbell rang with a shipment of 701c parts. Coincidence??
