I bought a replacement screen on [Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com). It should be here Monday or Tuesday. I watched a YouTube video, and it seems pretty straight forward. I’d like to hear about your experience with this.

No experience by I replaced a MacBook screen using the iFixIt notes and pictures. They were great, you should check their site as well as the YouTube video you have found.
