If you're handy with a screwdriver its pretty easy. Just don't lose the screws.

Most laptops you can find the service manual online for them, just Google for it.

super simple with a dell.

When you buy one and you cant figure it out, give me a call and I can walk ya through it. PM me and I can send my number to ya. Once you start taking it apart you wont need my number though.

Not to hard just make sure you keep track of every screw and also find all the screws that need to be taken out. Also make sure you disconnect all the wires that go to the screen. Might include a wireless lan card cable.
