Screen replacements and repairs on the 14" MacBook Pro introduces a new complication due to the mini-LED display backlight. These backlights require a more complex calibration, which has caused Apple to design the parts such that artifacts that appear on the screen when they have not been paired to each other. This video outlines the tedious and risky process by which the chips containing the paired data are transferred from the old to the new part in order to ensure proper functionality. Currently, this is the only way to repair the display on a 14"
MacBook Pro besides taking it to Apple.

Hi does the T-7000 glue work as well as the OEM adhesive that Apple uses?

[@vancouvermac]

Yes, it works great. It is important to use glue instead of tape, since 1mm width tapes don't have enough holding power for this screen.
