Macbook Pro Retina 13" A1425 A1502 Screen replacement

- In this one i will do a screen replacement on a Macbook Pro Retina 13" model. This one was A1502 but same procedure is for A1425 which is the older model. Both have the same screen, both are done the same. I haven`t done many of these, so i haven't gotten this to perfection in terms of a time frame, so video is not short. It is close to perfect in terms of how clean this needs to be done. When i get to the point of doing this very fast i will update it, but this will show you how to do it properly.
If by watching my video you get discouraged to do it your self, which i hope you will :) contact me, i offer repair services.

Hope you enjoy it, and this helps you out.
Thank you for the videos! You are awesome for showing the people how to "do it themselves" Also, I run a computer repair shop, and after skimming through this, there is no way this will be done in shop! For $100 more for entire screen assembly, makes this a 10 min job. I charge very little in flat rate labor, so even for the customer this is a good fix. You even say "I don't recommend this" at the start of the video. Thank you again for helping the community of planet earth! Spread the knowledge!!
A really nice clear video. For anyone who is going to do it - make absolutely sure that you are as practised and skillful as Milan before you start. Especially in easing off the screen after heating it - do it exactly as he shows or you will damage the diffuser sheets. For myself, as an infrequent changer of Mac bonded screens, I would get the complete screen assembly. Or, of course, send it off to Milan. I did try some diffuser sheets from a scrap screen but, because they were slightly too narrow and retained differently there would have been bright lines down the sides of the display and the sheets would have moved over time under the screen panel. So it would not have been an acceptable repair - shame as the screen looked great when temporarily fitted.
Thanks for this video, I used this a basis and can now comfortably perform this job in around half an hour (providing the original LCD comes out nicely, without leaving cracked glass around the edge!). I now have the task to refurb around 50 lids and also teach others how to do it too.
It's a really satisfying job to complete, especially as I was always under the impression it basically could not be done!
Thanks for the great work Milan. 😀😀😀😀😀
where do you source your LCD's from? old comment I know...
Thank you very much! I replaced my screen with the help of your video and the ifixit article for removing the screen assembly. I also replaced the battery while I was inside. A hair dryer just isn't hot enough, but I wasn't wanting to try a heat gun out of concern of preserving the white diffusor sheets underneath the screen. I nicked one of the diffusors on the corner, but it is not obvious and I have to seek it out to find it. I was able to soften the adhesive by placing the screen in a hot car. The adhesive dissolves with 'Coleman' fuel to make a thorough cleaning easy. Launch a GoFundMe and we'll help you buy a lapel mic and a GoPro!
Thanks for the guidance. Repaired my friends cracked display with success thanks to this video. :)
Danny Johnston hey. Where did you buy the LCD and bezel for MacBook 13” A1502?
Million thanks - invaluable for us DIY types.
Hey Milan, thanks a lot mate, I succesfully changed my retina display using your video.
Thank you so much!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Where did you get the LCD?
Yes pleeeeease tell me where you got your lcd screen from? I can find a screen for every other MBP available other than the one I need! It so frustrating
Thanks for the video... I just replace a screen on one of these but I haven't installed it back on the laptop yet... wish me luck that it works.
u can test it for good before u put it on.
Thanks so much for the video. We just used to successfully replace our display, having never done anything quite like this. Very helpful!
Thank you for this nice video! I was wondering if the screen assembly of a a1425 model (late 2012) is also the same as the a1502 (early 2015)? My screen has a line in the middle and i still have a old a1425..
Hi Milan, just want to say thanks for uploading the videos! I started a website in UK back in July and I am making a nice amount on the side to my day job thanks to your Macbook Air and Retina videos.
Just wondered if you had any tips for prying the Retina screens, now you have done more now? I have done around 8-10 of these and still crack it when prying, can't get my head around it. Really annoying repair, and still can't cut down the time. Got a long painting knife tool to slide in which works well, but having trouble finding a longer one, as it would make the repair a lot easier. Prefer the Air's, much easier :)
Thanks for taking the time to read this, wish you all the best
Hi Jakub. For some reason instead of replying to your question I clicked remove so I do apologize for that and hope you get this comment as a reply at least. For your question, to be honest, I use the same screen on all a1425 and a1502 models that came out from 2012 until today. No issues no ghosting no programming needed, and no returns or issues whatsoever. I don't have the part number of the screen on me now but I will write it down for you so you know what I'm using, on Monday most likely. I'm pretty sure which ever one u get that it will work just fine and that this vendor is wrong abt having to program the screen.

Excellent buddy, only I have a question:
If I don't have a heat gun. Can I use a hair dryer?
very clever and very well done in 1 hour time. Congratulation Milan and thanks a lot for your very helpful explanations.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks
I have a small question if you have a time. Is it possible to replace A1502 Display with A1425 display?
Hi Milan, thank you for your video, i got a lot of important information to get it done myself...
You were saying you used 5 mm wide tape... can you tell me how thick the tape should be? I am guessing 0.5 - 1mm ???
Thank You!
Great video, followed it and removed the lcd successfully
Where did you get the lcd from? I can only find full assembly replacements
they have them on ebay and amazon. not cheap tough. almost as much as assembly. recently prices hiked up like crazy due to lack of parts available.might be better for you to get an assy
I have question. What is the 3M tape width that you use? Thanks
Awesome video thanks. Where can I buy just the screen? So far I only came across entire assembly.
ebay. sucks...its expensive. i would get the assembly.
Awesome video! So what do the sheets under the screen do? Do they make an electrical connection that can be broken or do they just sit there? Would just touching them, moving them, or wiping them off ruin them?
Physically, they just sit there. Functionally, there is no electrical connection, but what they do is filter backlight and provide that good color effect that retina has. They are also a heat barrier between the backlight plastic and LCD, and they are cold diffusers apparently. Touching them gently with clean hands, ok, you have to be careful tough. Wiping them with anything, total destruction!!!
Hey Milan, thanks for the tutorial....After taking the broken screen off and testing the new screen before reassembly, the new screen stays black...Any thoughts?Thanks !
Hi Milan, thanks for your video. it s very helpful. I just want to know what kind of Screwdriver set you use. can you send me a link to purchase them, thanks again
hi . I need your help please. can i put the display from macbook pro A1425 to A1502 . thank you.
Hi, can you tell me what screwdrivers do I need in order to change the LVDS cable for A1502 Mac? So far I discovered that I need Pentalobe 5 and Torx 5 and 8, its that enough?
Hi Milan, Very good video. I've tried but after replacing the LCD the rubber band does not fit good in my case. The point is that suddenly the screen powered off. After trying to reboot the rmbp the screen and the back Apple logo were off. I've tried with a friend screen and also the same, the weird thing is that in both case the iSight camera works fine. I've checked the display connection and seems to be ok. Do you have any advise on this? Thanks!
***** Not sure about the rubber. If you haven't stretched it out to much when removing it should fit just fine. Also, you did follow the video and put the rubber on the screen before installing the screen back in the case? Make sure that there is no glass in that little gap where the rubber goes into, because this can also cause rubber not to get in between the LCD and the case properly. As far as no video, i can tell you that you most likely blown something in the backlight circuit on the board, or on the screen itself, but since you said you tried another screen and its the same, this happened on the board most likely. Not sure how you did it, or what you did wrong, but i can try to help you out with this, as i do repair boards as well. Email me for more info: macrepairdude@gmail.com
Hey Milan, I've done one of these before and damaged the film. Can you recommend a rough guide for heat temperature? Thank you
Worked for me! Thanks Milan!
👍🏻
a bit helpfull video but there is much easier way to do it and yes u r right dont break the glass it will be real mess i have been through one of the repairs where i forgot some glass on adhesive :( broke the screen and putting the back u can better put the screen first with great alighnment
Milan, what do you charge for LCD replacement? what do you charge for entire display replacement?
If you need the assembly $450 if you need only the LCD $300
Hi thank you for this helpfull video.
I have a small question if you have a time. Is it possible to replace A1502 Display with A1278 display. I mean can I use my old macbook pro nonretina display for the new retina model. If not what happens if i replaced?
Thank you.
No. They are entirely different! U can't even place it on retina palm rest nor plug it in.
Hi Milan, great video. Thanks. I tried to look at your video again to see if the LVDS cable can be changed without ripping the screen off. At around 6.26, it looked like you could do this. Is this possible? Also is there a way to change the antenna cable without taking the screen off?
Lars Henriksen lvds cable yes. Very easy. Just take the assembly off and follow me to the point I take the cable off. Antenna no. It is under the LCD so LCD has to come off
Thanks Milan, most kind of you to reply and let me know. Have a great day!
Love the video but cannot "X" out the ad at the top of the video.
did the refurb, but stopped when i found mylar backing slightly deformed from heat. can this be fixed or replaced ? ... before i put in the new screen ?
Hello, thanks U for your great vidéo. What is The web side where you bought the screen? Sorry for my english 😀
l'opportuniste marty 👍🏻 You can get them on eBay and Amazon. Just make sure you buy for the year you have.
A question for you, I tried removing the LCD, but It seems I removed the Retina filter from the back as well, so I can see the metal part of the back cover. Is there a way to buy that part, whats the name of that filter that goes between the LCD and the metal back cover???
please colleagues help me can you give me a product link and what is the best and safest site for me to buy the screens? thank you!
Thanks for the video, but please pay a bit more attention to sound quality in the future. It makes it difficult to watch.
Hi, I have a small repair shop and partly thanks to your video I finally decided to try this myself after replacing many complete assemblies. It went perfectly, except for two sort of minor problems. 1, the LCD layer itself I didn't managed to get off from the adhesive at all cleanly, so had to break it all along the edges to then remove it. Very lengthy. 2. The backlight then didn't work, and I was able to determine that it was due to my new LCD, unfortunately.
Two questions: is a heat gun much better with repairs like this? For everything else I do, a professional line hair dryer has been pretty much fine (I know you may laugh). If so, is there a certain model or wattage you'd recommend? I'm considering buying the 1400W gun that iFixit sells in Europe. It has two power settings: 300°C (step 1), 500°C (step 2).
Also, can you send a link to the tool that you used to open up the LCD adhesive around the edges? I tried the iOpener thing (which works perfectly for the Air LCD) iFixit sells and the plastic spudger, and neither worked very well here.
Heat gun beats any hair dryer. 1400w is perfect. The tool I have is not something you can buy online. iFix sells crappy thick ones that I grind down on a knife sharpener to be thin and smooth and sharp as a razor. You can try that
OK, I'm pretty sure I have one of those, I think I'll try that! Thanks for the reply.
+spacec0w2 👍🏻
I'm so pissed i broke my screen yesterday 😡
hi, i need the background filters/reflectors you can see in the video 21:26 , where can i find them please ?
Ciao, I can not find the model glass n. A1502.
Can I use the model n. A1278?
Hey, very cool and helpful Video, thanks
do you sell a1425 screen ?
Thank You!
Is A1425 and A1502 screen compatible????
Hi Milan...i'm having a small problem. I replaced the LCD. I tested before the full assembly and it was working. i then assembled it fully and had no image. I conected the macbook to a TV and i had image and it worked well. I borrow an equal model from a friend of mine and tested the lcd with the damaged macbook and had no image also. I was very careful with the replacement, I have some experience with lcd's replacement (Smartpones & tablets) and know the rules of "be careful with the battery...tape the conectors with kapton tape, etc..). Do you have any idea of what is wrong? Maybe a a damaged fuse?
I would assume you knocked off something in the display circuit or killed the fuse somehow. It sounds like a board issue
Hi I'm from Peru I changed my screen and at the beginning I would leave some gray lines with a white one to the left. Then restart control + option + p + r. Then no image comes out, I only have HDMI signal. What can I do to solve my problem? Thanks in advance
Carlos Ventura Change the screen again. It's beoken
Thank you for the video! I have a question about the screen model number. Do you use -a01 or -a02 or it doesn't matter? Thanks!
The one i have right now is LP133WQ1(SJ)(EV). From what i know they all work the same and only LG and Samsung have made screens for this one. Both are compatible with A1425 and A1502. No ghosting, or any color issues from what i have seen.
Thank you!
Question: Like on the 1369/70 models you can if you have to remove the top layer sheet. Can you do that for this one? I notice it is a lot thicker.
Follow up: Ok, so once before a long, long time ago I was a dumb ass and tried to clean. We know you can't do that. Well, I just used a Kimwipe and some contact cleaner and cleaned my fuck ups. No spots, flawless. Don't use alcohol.
Hey Milan Stojic
I have a dent on my right corner screen is fine can I use back the screen
Aswell what type of heat gun you use
If you plan to remove your screen without cracking it, all I can say to you is GOOD LICK! I have done it a few times but that is very hard to do with a heat gun. I use a regular heat gun u can buy in Home Depot for $20 that has 2 speeds. It's 1500w
i just managed to fix my own screen but with moderate success, the screen and everything works but i now have a couple of red digits on my screen, and im sure it is a protective film that i somehow forgot to take off :/, i can probably live with it but if there is a way of disassembling it again and remove the film... especially if the screen protector is on the inside... then the glue might just be stuck to the film and hopefully im able to take the screen of leaving only the screen protector glued... what would you do in a situation like this? buying a new screen is possible, but if you have any ideas to how i should approach my issue, ill be really happy :)
further more thank you ALOT for making this video... couldnt have done it without it :)
That actually sucks, and I know your pain. I've done it before on different models so now I'm extra careful about it :-) It is possible to take the new screen out but it won't be easy if the tape settled. You are saying glue so I do hope you didn't use the glue because in that case you will crack it for sure. Use some heat and be gentle. U might be able to take it out without cracking it.
Milan Stojic shit! :) i was hoping that since the protective film is still on i might be able to take the screen off easier, because the screen protecter is easy to peal off... thus only leaving the screen protector taped to the frame?
*correction: i didnt glue it i taped it with 5mm black double sided tape
Well the screen protector should be on the LCD part of the screen only and not on the side glass. You do have to peel off the top and sides of it and unscrew the bracket if you taped the bottom metal bracket as well. Than hold the screen under the angle and try to peel off the protective sheet. Do not let it touch the inner layers because it will connect to it and get stuck on it. U might damage those diffusers like that. Use a little bit of heat, not to much, you don't want to burn the front glass. Let's hope that tape didn't connect that much so u can peel that off without cracking it. Don't forget to unscrew that bottom metal bracket. That one connected for sure!
Is there a way to identify where the three individual cables on the right side of the laptop labeled j1, j2 and j3 belong? The label is on the board and not the wires.
Alexander Dace If you are referring to the wifi antennas, follow the length of you don't remember where you pulled them out from. Even if you plug them in into the wrong connectors wifi card will get its signal and work just fine. But by the length you should be able to figure out where which goes
Yes the WiFi antenna cables. Thank you, I didn't know if the mac antenna was picky on the placement.
Can i use this guide for the Macbook Pro Retina 15" model A1502?
A1502 cant be a 15" model by any means, that is a 13" model that came in late 2013. 15" is A1398, and yes, you can use this guide. It is exactly the same procedure for the 15" model as well. Take your time, be careful with it, and good luck.
My mistake. It is a 13" like the one in the video. Thank you! :)
No problem. You`r welcome, and good luck!
Do you have a store ? I would like to send my MacBook for repair
What screwdriver do you use to remove the bottom?
I have a early 2013 15" MBP retina and I have an dimming issue. The display is very dim even when the brightness is at it's max. How can I tell if it's the LCD screen that needs to be replace or the whole display assembly needs to be replace? I tried resetting the pram, SMC and I reinstalled the OS. Nothing seemed to fix the issue.
Sounds like a backlight issue. It's a part of her assembly and connected to the screen board. It's difficult to say without looking at it. If you have a spare assembly you could connect it to see if it works with it though. I would say take it to someone for an estimate to check that out.
Hi Milan...any advice for removing remains of tape in the backlight sheet before i assemble the new lcd?
Thanks!
Tape in the backlight sheet? If you are referring to the spongy tape that is left over that held the screen down to the case, I showed it in the video. You have to scrape it off with the metal spudger if you have one
I mean, after taking off the cracked lcd, a very small piece of the spngy tape is glued on the backlight sheet. Is there any way to take it off but not damaging the sheet once we cant put our fingers on it?
No idea what you are referring to. Backlight sheet is a plastic which is below 3 thin paper like sheets. If you have some of the tape that was holding the screen Going on those sheets (diffuser sheets) than use tweezers to carefully pull it off.
Hi, I noticed that an older model, i.e. A1238 can be replaced only the Glass Screen, not the LCD (if the LCD is okay).. Does A1502 Retina model designed the way that u just cannot replace the Glass, but both need to replaced? I have not seen a vendor selling just Glass, but they are selling the LCD.. I wonder it comes as one piece when you order. I contacted some vendors but they cannot tell, since they are dealing with so many LCDs.. Any info will be appreciated..
Nobody sells the glass because there is no glass screen on this model. LCD is fused to the glass you refer to and this glass is actually a part of it and has to be replaced. If you have a crack it is not on the glass. Your LCD is cracked and you need a new one
Thank you for the info..
great video thanks
Coming. Nice
hello , sorry for my english but i have a problem I did everything I saw in this video and now I have no brightness, which may be my problem? display defective ?? or maybe i did something wrong with the backlight ? can i repleace the backlight ?? please heeelp meee, thanks..
It can be your fault, or the defective display. There is no way of me knowing what is wrong with it before seeing the computer. Check if you plugged in the small connector next to the screen connector on the little board of the LCD. That's the backlight connector
+Milan Stojic thanks for the quick reply , i was checking and the connector is plugged in correctly ,I will comment when i know whats the problem. thanks.
it looks to be possible, I will have a go. The one I got online looks like it has a protective sheet on both sides (digital numbers on the screen and back of lcd), but I dont get a grip to remove it. scared to scratch. any Idea?
Use your fingernail!
Milan Stojic
Thanks, but I dont feel an egde. in fact I am in doubt if there is a cover there at all.. the backside of the lcd should be without any printing, right? no digital numbers, just a smooth mirror-like surface?
Thanks again...
If there is nothing in the back just a smooth mirror like surface than u don't have any protection and you will need to clean that up so you don't have marks and fingerprints on t when you close it. If there is any print than you have the protective Gil there. Be careful, if you dig up the corner and nothing is there you will break it. If you need to clean this use dry toilet paper. Soft one, not one of those thin see through one, the softest y can find. Like that you won't scratch anything and you will manage to clean it, blow the dust and lint off of it with air and than put it back in as per video
Thanks, it was just not covering out towards the rim. I managed to do all the procedure and it was a success. Great video, made it possible.
Help please. I accidentally yanked the camera connector off of the logic board instead of just unplugging the cable. Do you know if there's a way to repair this damage? Maybe solder it back on?
Yup. That would be your only option. I suggest you don't do it yourself and get professional help as you should have before attempting this to begin with
+Milan Stojic is that something that you've heard happen before and got fixed? I'm not sure where to go to get it fixed
+lilsis You can either take it to a specialized electronics repair shop that knows how to do micro soldering. It depends on what kind of damage you did to the traces, but it can be fixed. I do this kind of repair as well, I just have to see it to know the extent of damage you made. Soldering repair on your board is pretty pricey. You could have paid $300 to get that screen replaced, now you will pay another $200-300 to get the board fixed or live without the iSight and buy a USB camera. This is exactly why many of us making these videos stress out not to DIY if you r not skilled so it doesn't cost you double
+Milan Stojic I was watching your video and saw that you just pulled it off so I mimicked how you did it. It was a very amateur mistake that I made. If it's gonna cost that much, I guess it's best to just use usb camera. I wouldn't want to pay too much or replace the entire logic board just for the camera. I thought it could be around $100 to be able to fix it. :(
+lilsis I really doubt someone will do a proper job for a $100 but don't give up on it. See if you can find someone. Ask around. If not than a USB camera is the only solution.
will this work for a early 2015 13 inch retina?
Sunny Bibra Yes
Yo. Can i use this for my Macbook Retina 13 2015 model?
Process is the same
Hi, Whete i can find a cheap replacement screen for macbook pro 13' early 2015 A1502?
Giwrgos Gargalas Not sure what you consider as cheap? $1, $5, $10...This screen is about $160-$180. Amazon/eBay
Great Video!! only problem is i couldn't find the replacement Panel. can you please point me to right direction to find the part?
Thank U for your answer. Bye
if i damaged the white layers what i can do ??
Fun a broken assembly open it up without damaging then again and than take them out and replace yours. If you can't, buy yourself a new screen assembly, and in the future don't attempt repairs like this to avoid additional cost ad have a professional service do it. Also don't try to purchase white sheets online. Any and every seller selling them has no idea what he is selling and the sheets you will receive will arrive damaged. There is no way to transport these other than on a vacuum space and separated to avoid damage. Nobody does that!
Thanks great Guide, wish i had watched this before i tried to do one, cracked the new screen :-(
Oh well lesson learnt!
Thank youuuuu
Dont know if you said it or not but what size of adhesive tape did you use?
5mm
Milan Stojic thank you for the great video. Which brand are you using for adhesive and from where you purchase?
3M adhesive
It's a 3m tape, I don't know the exact marking since I don't have any of that and am using another which I had, which has no marks on it. Size is 5mm wide and I believe it was Core 4000 series or something like that. Don't hold me on that. There are hundreds of 3m tapes out there but I would suggest u do, go to www.rossmanngroup.com and grab one.
Pls what's the size of the adhesive tape used for the repair?
5mm
Thank you, and great job.
How thin? 1mm?
Ximena Mignaco about 5mm should be fine but you can always cut it, to the size you feel is right.
where do you get a prier like that?
I've had this tool for more than 5y so I can't tell you where. No idea where I got it. When it breaks I will have a proper burial for it as I probably will never find the same. Try to find something similar on Utrecht. They have painting knives that are very thin and might help with this repair.
Does this do anything to the memory?
No?
WOOHOO SUCCESS!
Thanks man!
hi can A1502 be compatible with Macbook Pro, 13 inch Mid 2014?
Mainak Mondal 13" mid 2014 model is A1502. No idea what you are asking here
Sorry not a tech shavvy....mate.. just wanted to make sure, the one I'm ordering from ebay, is legit.
Mainak Mondal No worries. The model number is on the bottom of your laptop. As long as it's a 1502 LCD and not for 2015 model you r good. 2015 is different and worn work in a 2014 laptop
where do you buy the replacement for a 1425 late 2012? thanks my friend im from argentina
Just order one from eBay or Amazon
Why do you have the same video as Louis Rossmann? SAME EXACT VIDEO.
Maybe you should watch both videos, again, from beginning to the end, and than after you see that they are not SAME EXACTLY, you will realize that I filmed that video for Louis so he has it as well, or you by some weird mistake thought it was Louis doing this???
Milan Stojic oh okay I didn't know. I watched your full video before and then only watched part of this one. But damn that looks like a PITA.
+Josh Bacon it was at the beginning. Not after a few times, but can be annoying
Kad sam ti video nick rekoh do jaja neki nas, ali ti sa druge strane bare :-)
panta22 Nas, i sa druge strane bare 👍🏻😊
jako je komplikovano bro, ja sam se odlucio da pazarim sve u kompletu.
panta22 👍🏻
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I'm in the middle of replacing my screen. I could not find my heat gun and took old screen off by breaking it into little pieces. Tiny pieces of glass everywhere. What a mess. Don't be an idiot like me. Use a heat gun.
Actually u can use a hair dryer as well :-) just takes more time to heat up to the proper temp to loosen the adhesive.
Milan Stojic Yea I do not have hair, a hair dryer, or patience.
I would have tested it first.
Very detailed video, thanks! Guys from Uncover (uncovermac dot com) customize the apple logo on the lid by "...carefully taking apart the top case and use a laser cutter to cut out a beautiful design, before putting it back together again, with a filling of high strength polycarbonate plastic inside the design, half translucent of course, to let the light through." I just wonder how are they able to take it apart and put it back together without damaging anything.
That's actually hard to believe but it is possible if they have the machine that assembles these. Not sure tough. I know I won't be opening this if its not cracked. Even for fun. My rule is "if it's not broken don't try to fix it!"
Just fuckin with you and yeah they can be used to play guitar and pick ur nose
👏👏👏👏👏👍👌🇳🇴
I regret so much opening my mouth and saying I'd fix her macbook, and trying to do it on 200$ and being cheap and buying cheap parts made this impossible. Now I don't know what to do , I'm gonna look like an idiot
How far did you get?
Milan Stojic
I removed the glass and now im waiting for a replacement glass since for some reason i thought you would be able to save the glass i ordered just the lcd at first
+Brownkevin7 You either have a wrong part or a wrong computer you are looking at here. Glass and LCD are fused together and there is no separating them. Especially no saving the glass when you take it off as you can't take it off in one piece. If you indeed have a retina than you missed some parts of my video, and big time! If you removed the glass and left the LCD I'm pretty sure you messed up the assembly
"Иван Иванов
15:30 you broke the glass"
If you are going to be a moron, post something stupid by thinking you will look smart, read first what is it you are watching you dumbass. I am replacing a BROKEN CRACKED FUCKED UP screen! I can not crack it more than it already is CRACKED! And this is not an old MBP it is a retina model and they DO NOT HAVE A GLASS in front of the screen! If you post something stupid, leave a reply, dont delete it, so that i can tell you properly to go fuck yourself you idiot!
Wow a little sensitive about those girlish finger nails are you. Just messin with you I realized that you posted that 2 years ago so sorry dude.
Eric Crossland No, not really. I just find some satisfaction in the "fuck off" sentence when I don't care much about a comment. And yeah, I have nails hard as stone, and always have them slightly longer on one hand. Multiple purpose tool if you ask me. I see a guitar on the pic, if you play you would know.
