    WARNINGS:

    • Test before installation! When you receive a backlight/LCD kit, you should perform a dry run before installing to assure that nothing has been damaged in transit. A dry run or test fit means the kit is not installed in the shell. This includes the use of adhesives, brackets, and any performed soldering. All ribbon cables should have no bends or creases in them. If you are unsure how to perform a dry run, please contact our support team and we will be happy to help. Backlight kits that have been installed are not eligible for replacement or return.
    • LCD may break if put under too much pressure or dropped. Please exercise extreme caution when installing.

      Worth the money and the effort. Just be prepared and know what it takes to install.

      This kit was on sale for $50 when I got it, and after having installed it, I'd say that price is just about right. It is certainly not the easiest kit out there, and I would not recommend it to beginners, but the juice is worth the squeeze. The OSD and touch sensors make it a pleasure to use. One note, I also installed a power regulator, as I believe the GBP really needs it when it comes to these IPS screens. Overall happy with my purchase, and hope others here like it as well!

      Screen is great but way to hard for me to solder the wires for the extra features. Wish there was a better way

      A seemingly excellent kit, marred with no installation guide

      To the point here. Positive, full screen, beautiful color choices (8), and a very nice pixel count and clarity to the screen. The dual touch sensors to cover the color choice, another for beyond darkest 10 choices of brightness it's amazing.

      Negative: Site lists using an existing guide to follow for install. The guide isn't compatible, not even close other than shell milling. DO NOT FOLLOW IT. I almost ruined a kit the amount of times I had to try and figure it out and why it wouldn't even work thinking it was dead. You have to connect a single wire soldering between the board and GBP power switch up top. I'm not sure of the depth of this kit, it appears to have more functions, but I stopped trying to install it in case it would burn me in the end. It may have an optional button combo positional sizing choice menu as I caught a video online by makho with something similar to get this even to work found on youtube.

      Buyer beware, find some instructions or don't try it with what's there.
